Calculated 3 axes, established single tooth coordinate systems, and calculated oriented bounding boxes (OBB) for each tooth using principal component analysis (PCA) to improve the accuracy of locating operating axes and points
Developed 10 interaction modes for each tooth in both PC system and VR system:
rotation around X/Y/Z axis
rotation left/right/top/bottom side of the tooth
translation along X/Y/Z axis
Established scenes for surgery simulation and data displaying (number, transformation matrix of the chosen tooth, etc.); Integrated all functions above in a VR application which could be used to simulate surgery vividly and calculate transformation matrix of each tooth during operation
Designed and implemented a neural network based on SegNet to segment teeth parts from converted CT images; Constructed teeth dataset by annotating teeth using Photoshop after converting CT scans to PNG images; Optimized the performance of the network to high accuracy (99.5% in testing) using SELU
Extracted edges of segmented teeth images using Canny Operator which is not susceptible to noise; Generated point clouds on extracted edges and reconstructed the 3D teeth mesh model using spatial characteristics of CT scans
Proposed an optimized method which segmented teeth from CT scans using the network above but changed produced images into CT formats to utilize existing mature medical imaging technology for reconstruction
VR-based Alpine Skiing project for 2022 Olympic Winter Games
Designed a real-time detection system based on relative angle and collision mechanism of predefined tags to detect the orientation and swing range of player’s arms
Established realistic scenes associated with snow mountains and skiing using Unity; Designed an interactive VR action game with 2 different modes (Prop Mode and Gate Mode)
ChinaVis 2019 Data Visualization
Predicted the conference agenda, possible potential types, and relationships of participants as well as emergency represented by outliers after analyzing data of sensors through clustering
Designed and implemented an interactive visual analysis website to demonstrate findings about the relationship and outliers with 9 different kinds of charts(Personal Track Map, Radial Bar Chart, etc) and different interactive methods
