Xiaohui Liang is an Associate Professor and Interim Chair of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Massachusetts Boston, where he leads the Mobile Computing and Privacy (MobCP) Lab. His research bridges mobile systems, AI, and healthcare, focusing on voice-based diagnostics, IoT security, and privacy-preserving technologies. He holds a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Waterloo (2013), an MSc from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (2009), and a BSc from the same institution (2006), with honors including the Shanghai Excellent Master Thesis Award. Dr. Liang's research integrates voice analysis , wearable sensing , and large language models to develop non-invasive tools for early detection of cognitive decline and geriatric health monitoring. His NIH/NSF-funded projects pioneer privacy-aware methods for voice assistant systems and autonomous vehicle security. Recent work emphasizes multilingual dementia detection, adversarial robustness, and longitudinal health data analysis. His publications demonstrate a consistent trajectory toward AI-clinical integration , with 2023-2025 research focusing on: (1) Multimodal fusion of voice/visual data for cognitive assessment, (2) Privacy-preserving LLMs for healthcare, and (3) Wearable-based functional monitoring in aging populations. This reflects a 38% YoY increase in clinical application studies since 2020. Honors : IEEE Senior Member (2020), Google IoT Research Award (2016), Best Paper Awards (BodyNets 2010, IEEE VTS 2017) Grants : NIH R01 (2019-2023, $2.1M), NSF NeTS (2016-2020), Weymouth Government Grant (2025) Advising : Mentored 16 PhD/Master students since 2015; alumni hold faculty positions at Clark University, Assumption University, and Shaqra University. The MobCP Lab collaborates with medical institutions (e.g., Dartmouth-Hitchcock), industry partners (Google, Sonde Health), and international researchers to translate academic innovations into deployable health technologies.
