Ruixuan Qi
PhD Researcher
Biography
I have a wide array of interests and I am particularly interested in interdisciplinary research. My formal educations were in the field of mechanical engineering. But I also have industry experience in data science. Now I am working with electronics and system control to develop a new sensor to detect leakage in the water distribution network.
