My name is Mei Yii Lim, known as Meiyii by my colleagues. I am currently a
research associate for the EU FP7 LIREC
project. Before this, I was working in the EU FP6 eCIRCUS project. I have completed my PhD under the supervision of Prof. Ruth Aylett in 2007 where I created an intelligent agent with attitude that improves tour experiences. More information is available on the PhD Research link. I completed my MSc in Virtual Environments in 2002. I developed a Virtual Graffiti system (of which I named MYVG system) for my dissertation. Want to know more about MYVG System? Click on MSc Dissertation link. I am interested in multidisciplinary
research areas including cognitive and emotion modelling, intelligent virtual
agents, narrative system and multimodal interaction. |
