Yiwen Dong
Postdoctoral Scholar, Computer Science
BioYiwen Dong is a postdoc fellow at the Stanford Institute of Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). Her research interest is human behavior characterization and health monitoring through their interactions with the physical environment. Her current work focuses on human and animal health monitoring through gait-induced floor vibrations.
While buildings are traditionally considered as passive and indifferent, her works allow the buildings to be both self-aware and user-aware. Yiwen developed systems that utilize ambient structural vibrations to infer human behaviors and health status, which enables many smart building applications such as in-home patient monitoring and elder care, intruder prevention and occupant management, animal health monitoring, and welfare. She strives for the next-generation intelligent infrastructures by exploring the potential of structural monitoring for human-centered purposes.
Yiwen has an interdisciplinary background in civil engineering, electrical engineering, and AI. Yiwen received her Master’s degree in Structural Engineering at Stanford University and her Bachelor’s degree in civil engineering at Nanyang Technological University. She won various awards (Best Paper Award, runner-ups in competitions) in ubiquitous computing and cyber-physical system conferences. She is passionate about combining the physical knowledge from the living environments, sensing approaches from cyber-physical systems, and data-driven models from machine learning to infer people’s behavior patterns and health status.
