Chang Liu

Dr. Chang Liu is a Senior Lecturer in Electronic Engineering at the University of Edinburgh's School of Engineering. He received his B.Sc. in Automation from Tianjin University (2010) and Ph.D. in Testing, Measurement Technology and Instrument from Beihang University (2016). Following postdoctoral research at Empa-Swiss Federal Laboratories, he joined the Agile Tomography Group at Edinburgh.

His research focuses on laser spectroscopy, laser imaging, and data-driven imaging techniques for applications in reacting flow-field diagnostics and environmental monitoring. Key specialties include design of near/mid-infrared LAS sensing systems, development of high-sensitivity imaging methodologies, spectroscopic modeling, inverse problem solving, and embedded system design.

His publications demonstrate a consistent focus on advancing tomographic imaging techniques, with recent work emphasizing machine learning integration, hardware acceleration, and industrial applications in aero-engine monitoring. Research consistently addresses challenges in spatial/temporal resolution enhancement and real-time system implementation.

Dr. Liu teaches courses in Digital System Design, Analogue Circuits, and Embedded Systems. He leads multiple research projects including EPSRC-funded initiatives on laser imaging of turbine engine combustion species. His team collaborates with industrial partners to develop cutting-edge laser-based sensing solutions.
