Professor Perry Xiao is a faculty member at the School of Engineering, London South Bank University, where he serves as Course Director for the Master of Research in General Engineering. His academic background includes a PhD in Photophysics (1998), MSc in Condensed Matter Physics (1993), and BEng in Opto-Electronics (1990).
- Education:
- PhD in Photophysics, 1994–1998
- MSc in Condensed Matter Physics, 1990–1993
- BEng in Opto-Electronics, 1986–1990
Xiao’s research focuses on developing novel infrared and electronic sensing technologies for biomedical applications (e.g., skin hydration, Trans-Epidermal Water Loss) and industrial Non-Destructive Testing. His work integrates machine learning with photothermal radiometry and capacitive imaging, yielding over 100 peer-reviewed publications and 3 books. Recent trends emphasize deep learning-driven segmentation of planetary data and error analysis in vision systems.
Scientific Awards:
