Forrest Bao’s Summary
As a graduate student paralleling on M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering(EE) and Ph.D. in Computer Science(CS), my research interests are mainly on three fields, Artificial Intelligence(AI, for CS Ph.D. degree), Biomedical Engineering(BME, for EE MSc degree) and Bioinformatics (for fun).
In BME, I am working on the epilepsy diagnosis/localization and seizure prediction thru EEG signal classification/recognition/analysis.
In AI, my work is about logic-based AI, such as SAT, CSP, ASP, planning and scheduling. I focus on combining different knowledge representation methods and solving techniques to build more powerful AI agent to think, rationally.
In Bioinformatics, I develop algorithms for the data mining on plant siRNA related issues, such as predicting the expression of siRNAs under certain circumstance.
My career plan is to be a professor in EE or CS. I like research and teaching, as well as serving my community, such as being a high school engineering mentor to help more kids love science and engineering. Beyond this, I want to have a startup company making money from open source technology- of course, not selling software compiled from GPL'ed code and closing my modification.

K-12 Engineering Outreach Mentor
Texas Tech University
(Educational Institution; 1001-5000 employees; Higher Education industry)
February 2008 — May 2008 (4 months)
It's awesome to spread my passion on science and engineering to kids. When I was in high school, I was effected by similar projects, like NSF/NASA GLOBE program. So, now it's the time for me to feed back.
