He received his PhD in Engineering from Simon Fraser University in 2005. His background is in sensors and sensor systems, and his current research interests focus on data analytics, particular of sensed data. His interest in sensor data has allowed him to publish widely, from fuel cells to microfossils, from computer games to computer networks, from information theory to public health. He is currently a co-Investigator on CIHR funded research investigating the role of cityscapes on health using smartphones and sensors, a co-lead on a CFREF funded research program seeking to automate crop phenomics, a co-investigator on an NSERC CREATE funded project on game user research, and his own Discovery Grant funded research on the role of information theory in feature selection.
