Academic biography
Graham Healy is an Assistant Professor in Computing at Dublin City University (since 2019) and Programme Chair of the BSc Computer Science programme (since 2023). His research focuses on machine learning and multimodal sensing, modelling human behaviour using physiological, behavioural, and interaction data.
His work bridges methodological development and real-world application, with contributions spanning healthcare, human performance, and intelligent systems. He collaborates internationally across academic, clinical, and industry settings, and contributes to datasets and evaluation initiatives adopted by research communities worldwide.
He previously held research positions at The University of British Columbia (2012–2013) and the Insight Centre for Data Analytics at DCU (2013–2019).
Research interests
My research focuses on machine learning and multimodal modelling of human behaviour, combining physiological signals (e.g. EEG, eye-tracking), behavioural data, and interaction patterns. I am particularly interested in how these signals can be used to understand cognition and support real-world applications.
Key areas include:
Machine Learning & Data Analytics: modelling, evaluation, and deployment of data-driven systems, including applications in healthcare and applied AI. Multimodal Human Behaviour Modelling: integrating EEG, eye-tracking, and behavioural data to study attention, comprehension, and performance. Information Retrieval & Evaluation Frameworks: development of datasets, benchmarks, and evaluation methodologies used by international research communities. Applied Sensing Systems: real-world deployment of multimodal systems in domains such as healthcare, human performance, and interactive systems.
