Dr Joni Zhong graduated from the South China University of Technology (Guangzhou, China) with double bachelor’s degrees in control science and computer science. He then obtained his MPhil at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University and PhD at the University of Hamburg, Germany. Before returning to PolyU, he had been a researcher at the University of Hertfordshire (UK), the University of Plymouth (UK), Waseda University (Japan), the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (Japan), etc, where he established close interdisciplinary collaborations with researchers in neuroscience, cognitive sciences and philosophy from the EU, Japan and the UK. Dr Zhong had received a 3-year Marie-Curie fellowship for his PhD study. He had also received such awards as the Best Student Paper at ICANN 2011, the Best Theory Paper at ICMIC 2017 and the Best Paper Nomination at Cyber 2019.

Dr Dalin Zhou is currently a Senior Lecturer with the School of Computing, the University of Portsmouth, UK. His current research interests include wearable sensing and analysis, assistive robotics, rehabilitation intelligence, human behaviour analysis, human machine interaction and multimodal sensor fusion. His current research contributes to the monitoring and rehabilitation of human motor function, improving the daily life activity and working capability for both the disadvantaged group of limb-impaired patients and the aging community using multimodal sensing technology of electromyography and ultrasound, computational intelligence and machine learning algorithms for physiological signal analysis. As an early career researcher, he has published more than 50 peer-reviewed papers and editorial volumes in his interested research area. He has led the research projects funded by EU Commission, European Regional Development Fund, Daiwa Anglo-Japanese Foundation as the Principal Investigator and Co-Investigator. He has served as a lead guest editor for International Journal of Humanoid Robotics (IF:1.616) and Sensors (IF:3.576).
