معرفی
Lu Feng is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Virginia, affiliated with the Link Lab, a center specializing in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). She holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Oxford. Her research focuses on ensuring safety and trustworthiness in CPS, with applications in medical devices, autonomous robotics, and smart cities. She has received prestigious awards including the NSF CRII Award (2018) and NSF CAREER Award (2020). Her work integrates formal methods, AI, and robotics to address challenges in CPS assurance and human-machine collaboration.
Notable contributions include developing risk-assessment tools for heart failure patients, predictive monitoring frameworks for CPS, and trust-aware planning algorithms for autonomous systems. She has pioneered frameworks like DP-RuL for clinical decision support systems and IrrMap for precision agriculture. Her research bridges theoretical foundations (e.g., model checking, reinforcement learning) with practical applications in healthcare, transportation, and urban systems. She collaborates across disciplines, contributing to initiatives like the Link Lab’s smart city simulations and safety-critical medical CPS assurance.
