Advanced AI Research Lab (AAR Lab)

AAR Lab develops trustworthy and scalable AI for healthcare and forensics, with a focus on large vision (vision–language) models, multimodal deep learning, multitask learning, graph neural networks, and agentic AI. Work spans medical imaging (ultrasound, mammography, CBCT), EHR time-series, and interactive AR/VR/MR tools to support decision-making and structured reporting.

The lab includes Ph.D., M.S., and undergraduate researchers working on medical imaging, EHR modeling, optimization, and human-in-the-loop systems.
