Background
Professor Guo is the Head of Centre for Assured & Connected Autonomy. He is the Head of Human Machine Intelligence Group at 探花精选.
He obtained his MEng, MA, and PhD degrees from the University of Cambridge. Since 2012, he has built an award-winning team at the University of Warwick (2012-19) and then 探花精选 (2019-now). His research group has won the IET Innovation Award winner (2015) and been a runner-up in the Bell Labs Prize three times (2014, 2017, 2019).
He has been PI on 拢8.2m and investigator on over 拢35m of research funding, and was a Turing Fellow at the Alan Turing Institute. He has published 160+ journal papers (total IF 860+) and 100+ IEEE/ACM conference papers, with over 7000 citations (h-index 42). This includes a Nature, Nature Communications, Nature Machine Intelligence, Nature Comp.Sci., and several cover issues in Royal Society, Nature Publishing Group, and IEEE journals. He currently serves as editor on several IEEE & Royal Society journals, and is a Full Member of the EPSRC peer-review college, as well as reviewing for UKRI FLF, ESRC, MRC, Royal Society, and Leverhulme.
Research opportunities
As human society is becoming increasingly inter-connected, human and machine intelligence is more closely interfaced than ever. Our networked society faces serious challenges from the human and natural world. My expertise is in connected intelligence, linking: data science, communication systems, and machine learning. My research designs data-driven solutions for socio-cyber-physical ecosystems. In particular, I am interested in how AI and information systems can be designed for specific challenging environments or tasks, whilst integrating human domain knowledge.
