Richard Zhao, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor, Department of Computer Science, Faculty of Science, University of Calgary.
Areas of Research
Serious Games, Virtual Reality, Immersive Technologies, Artificial Intelligence
In my research group, we are interested in serious games: these are computer games and gaming-related technologies for the purpose of training and education. We deploy immersive technologies (virtual reality, eye-tracking technology) as part of the experience. We examine AI techniques (search and learning) to provide adaptive and personalized experiences, and for automated natural language generation.
