Joining me today is Professor Flora Salim.  Flora is the CISCO Chair in Digital Transport, UNSW Sydney. Her research is in the intersection of human-centred computing and machine learning for behaviour intelligence with multimodal sensor data, with applications in intelligent assistants, health monitoring, smart cities, spatio-temporal recommendation systems, and AI on the edge. She is the recipient of Women in AI Awards 2022 Australia New Zealand in the Defence and Intelligence category. She is a member of the Australian Research Council (ARC) College of Experts, an Honorary Professor of RMIT University, an Associate Investigator of ARC Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision Making and Society, a member of the Steering Committee of the ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing (UbiComp), Area Editor of Pervasive and Mobile Computing, Associate Editor of PACM Interactive, Mobile, Wearable and Ubiquitous Technologies (IMWUT), and an expert member of International Energy Agency’s EBC Annex 79. She was a Humboldt-Bayer Fellow, Humboldt Fellow, Victoria Fellow, and ARC Postdoctoral Industry (APDI) Fellow. She obtained her PhD from Monash University in 2009.

Let's talk robotics with Professor Flora Salim

In this episode, Zoe had a fantastic chat to Dr. Flora Salim, Associate Professor at the School of Computer Science and Information Technology, RMIT University. She obtained her PhD in Computer Science from Monash University and her research areas are mobile and pervasive computing, urban computing, activity and behaviour recognition, and applied data mining and machine learning for ambient intelligence. Flora shares with us how she sees Australia embracing Smart Community concepts, as well as some of the projects she's working on right now, including a foot traffic prediction app in Melbourne and a tool to help residents and tourists plan their BBQs in public parks. Zoe and Flora discuss change management and better integrating across disciplines, governments and industries. They finish their conversation discussing the emerging trend of the good things happening because of AI, the need for choice and control when it comes to our data, and the concept of algorithmic governance. As always, we hope you enjoyed listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed making it!Find the full show notes at www.mysmart.community Connect with Flora via LinkedIn and on Twitter @florsalim Connect via LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook @smartcommpod
