Tianyun Ling 

Tianyun LingTianyun Ling is a Senior Software Engineer of the Center of Excellence in Wireless and Information Technology (CEWIT). After he completed a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science in Beihang University from China, Tianyun Ling enrolled at Stony Brook University and graduated with a Master’s Degree in Computer Science.

During his Master study, Tianyun worked with Professor Arie Kaufman on a Colonoscopy project as a research assistant, seeking to improve the accuracy of the overall results by developing level-set based segmentation on 3D CT images. He continued to implement the same technique to the prostate and heart on both CT and MRI images.

After joining CEWIT, Tianyun first designed and developed the cardiac image compression software which include image transfer, segmentation, compression and visualization components to facilitate the remote diagnosis of cardiac disease.  He worked through SUNY Collaborative to help develop and maintain the formulary website for New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) and assist colleagues in taking file submissions, processing data and generating the requested reports. 

Tianyun has also worked with the Northwell Radiology Department on the Treatment Planning and Tracking System (TPTS). He gathered users’ requirements and produced specification documents, worked with CEWIT staff to prepare design documents for this project, adopted the latest technologies for developing software applications using ASP.NET Core, tested different front design options and developed front- and back-end components of the system.

Tianyun is currently working on NSF funded AI-grid projects. He works with ComED client and Computer Science and Engineering faculties and students to understand the workflow, modularize the function components, design and develop both back-end, front-end, and middleware software, co-operate, test and deploy the Microgrid platform application.  He has also participated in vegetation management and visualization projects, using ArgGIS to analyze vegetation growth using drone and satellite images and works with the Stony Brook University police department to acquire drone images and then perform campus 3d building reconstruction. 

Tianyun also participates in various other collaborative research and provides assistance to researchers in seeking research funding from industry partners, government agencies and foundations.  He also works with staff to organize the CEWIT Hackathon, the annual CEWIT conference and other CEWIT sponsored events.
