Rate My Professor Doga Demirel

Demirel's research focuses on the design, development, assessment, and utilization of real-time medical and interactive simulations using computer graphics, virtual reality, artificial intelligence, machine learning, software engineering, and human-computer interaction including haptics. He has authored over 60 publications in reputable international journals and conferences. Key publications include "Virtual Reality-Based Donning and Doffing Simulator" (IEEE VRW, 2024), "Unified Framework for real-time fluid simulation in Virtual Rotator Cuff Arthroscopic Skill Trainer (VIRCAST)" (IEEE BIBE, 2023), "Development of a Virtual Reality-based Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty Simulator" (American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2023), "Skill Level Classification and Performance Evaluation for Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty" (Surgical Endoscopy, 2023), and "Scoring metrics for assessing skills in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair" (International Journal of Computer Assisted Radiology and Surgery, 2022). His work has earned multiple awards, such as the IEEE VR XRIOS Best Paper Award (2024), IEEE BIBE Best Paper Award (2023), American College of Gastroenterology Presidential Poster Award and Best Abstract in Obesity category (2023), Florida Polytechnic University Award for Excellence in Research (2022), and IEOM Outstanding Service Award (2022). Demirel co-chaired the Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Conference North America in 2022.
