How do we acquire number names in a second language? (Ref: LN/MJB-SF1/2026)

Learning the number system of a new language is more than memorising vocabulary, it is a window into how languages encode numerical concepts. Read more
 Supervisor: Dr MJ Bisson
 1 April 2027  PhD Research Project  Self-Funded PhD Students Only
More details

Computer Science & Mathematics - Example topics include person identification using gait-based approaches, AI for clinical assessment, and applications in areas such as ophthalmology and mobility analysis.

We are seeking motivated and self-funded PhD students who are excited to work at the intersection of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and real-world impact. Read more
