Laleh Jalali is a computer scientist with an
extensive background in applying advanced machine learning, deep
learning, and data mining techniques in different domains such as
Healthcare and Industrial Analytics. She is currently a senior
scientist at Hitachi America Ltd. R&D. Her professional
interests focus on event-based frameworks, big data analytics,
healthcare analytics, natural language understanding, and
context-aware mobile systems. At Hitachi, Laleh has been involved
in many customer co-creation projects where the team owns the
end-to-end process, from research to production models. Before
Hitachi, Laleh graduated with a PhD in Computer Science from the
University of California, Irvine. With Prof. Ramesh Jain as her
advisor, she completed her doctoral thesis focusing on designing
and developing an event mining framework, called EventMiner, with
an emphasis on interactivity and effective integration of
techniques from data mining, event processing, and human-computer
interaction. Key elements of her work were published in
International Conference on Multimedia & Expo (ICME), and the brave
new ideas track in Association for Computing Machinery Multimedia
(ACC MM), and International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval
(ICMR).
Ramesh Jain is an entrepreneur, researcher, and
educator. He is currently a Donald Bren Professor in Information &
Computer Sciences at the University of California, Irvine (UCI).
Earlier he worked at many other universities including University
of Michigan, University of California at San Diego, and Georgia
Tech. His research interests covered Control Systems (cybernetics),
Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence, and Multimedia Computing.
His current research passion is in addressing health issues using
cybernetic principles building on the progress in sensors, mobile,
processing, artificial intelligence, computer vision, and storage
technologies. He is founding director of the Institute for Future
Health at UCI. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the
Advancement of Science (AAAS), the Association for Computing
Machinery (ACM), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE), the Association for the Advancement of Artificial
Intelligence (AAAI), the International Association for Pattern
Recognition (IAPR), and the Society of Photo-Optical
Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE, formerly the Society of
Photographic Instrumentation Engineers).
Ramesh co-founded several companies, managed them in their initial
stages, and then turned them over to professional management. He
enjoys new challenges and likes to use technology to solve them. He
is participating in addressing the biggest challenge for us all:
how to enjoy a long life in good health.
