Personal profile
Research interests
Professor Soleimani leads the Engineering Tomography Lab (ETL) he founded in 2011. The main research themes are around the application of AI/ML in Engineering, and more specifically for: "Electrical and Electromagnetic Tomography”, "X-ray Computed Tomography", "Ultrasound Computed Tomography", “Multi-modality Tomography”, “Inverse Problems with AI/ML”. Application areas are in: " Industrial process tomography", "Robotic touch sensing", and in "Medical imaging"
ETL works in partnership with the leading UK and international research groups as well as various industrial collaborators. These led to development of several commercial imaging systems and solutions.
Professor Soleimani has led the University of Bath's collaborations with CERN through CMS research and educational partnership established in 2019. This followed a highly successful medical imaging project between Bath and CERN leading to a joint open-source software platform TIGRE.
Teaching interests
Prof. Soleimani is great advocate of multidisciplinary eduction in engineering, allowing broader eduction without compromise in depth. Prof Soleimani:
- proposed and created MSc in AI for Engineering and Design, a faculty wide MSc program started in 2024.
- proposed and created our very successful new undergraduate (UG) degree in Robotics Engineering, which started in 2018.
- has been instrumental in the success of Integrated Mechanical and Electrical Engineering (IMEE) an MEng course running since 2007.
- Teaching duties includes:
1) EE12002: Electromagnetics (EM) in year 1 UG
2) EE32024: Biomedical technology and instrumentation in year 3 UG
3) EE52034: Scientific imaging (SI) in year 4 UG
4) EE52044: Human machine interface (HMI) in year 4 UG
5) EE52036: Artifical intelligence and machine learning for engineering and design, MSc AI4ED
6) UG group business design project, UG final year project, and MSc Dissertaion
