He enjoyed them purely as a consumer\u2014watching movies on computers as a high school student, for example\u2014without knowing anything about programming.<\/p>\n<p>However, when he came to the United States to attend college, the dot-com bubble was at its peak. \u201cThere was a big excitement about computing, and so I figured this must be a hot space, something I needed to study,\u201d Hoque says.<\/p>\n<p>He took his first programming class at Truman State University, which had given him a full scholarship. Unlike Hoque, most of the other students in the class had taken advanced placement computer science classes in high school, so the instructor taught at their level. \u201cI really struggled through all my assignments, and ended up dropping the class,\u201d Hoque says.<\/p>\n<p>He tried again the following semester, and again dropped the class. So shaken was his confidence, he began struggling in all his classes.<\/p>\n<p>Hoque switched to Penn State for a fresh start. \u201cThere I was really lucky,\u201d he says. He took introductory computer science from an instructor who \u201cassumed nobody in the class knew anything [about the field] and went really slow, and that\u2019s when I really started to enjoy the subject.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then he failed to hit that \u201csubmit\u201d button. Denied an opportunity to major in computer science at Penn State\u2019s York campus, Hoque instead enrolled in computer engineering at the Behrend campus in Erie. He arrived in an odd semester, which meant taking classes without having first taken the prerequisites. Hoque found himself \u201cworking harder than most of the students in class, and still struggling to get Bs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But this time the struggles were paying off. The classes were small, and he was forging good relationshiops with his professors\u2014especially with Ralph Ford, now chancellor of Behrend, who allowed Hoque to take his \u201cfirst baby step\u201d as a bona fide researcher.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Finding his footing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>By his fourth year at Penn State, Hoque knew he wanted to explore whether computers might be able to recognize human emotion. Even as a child, he was fascinated by human emotion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a kid I traveled a lot to many different countries, and I would talk to people of different cultures. Even if I didn\u2019t speak their language, it was still possible to discern their emotions,\u201d he says. So novel was the idea, there were no courses offered on the topic, so Ford let Hoque pursue it as independent study.<\/p>\n<p>By then the dotcom bubble had burst. Rather than try to find a job in computing after he graduated, Hoque took a low paying job at a call center in Erie. The job was \u201ctedious, and after awhile you felt like you were losing your mind,\u201d he says. But it enabled him to spend nights pursuing his research with Ford. After a few months, they published a paper. Ford provided Hoque with funding to present the paper at a conference in California.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI enjoyed that experience very much,\u201d Hoque says. \u201cI knew I just wanted to get into research, and my career took off from there.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Breakthrough research<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Hoque\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/hoques.com\/Publications\/2013\/Hoque-PhD-Thesis-MIT.pdf\">PhD thesis<\/a> at MIT yielded the first scientific evidence that it is possible for humans to improve their face-to-face interpersonal skills through a virtual assistant. The system, called MACH (My Automated Conversation coacH), consists of an animated character that can see, hear and respond in real time while people practice social interactions in private.\u00a0The project was highlighted by the MIT Museum as one of the most unconventional inventions at MIT.<\/p>\n<p>Hoque\u2019s research has been supported by a healthy number of federal and industry grants for an early career faculty member. At last count, Hoque has been principal or co-principal investigator on nine grants totaling $6.6 million.<\/p>\n<p>So if resilience was key to overcoming those early mishaps in Hoque\u2019s career, what has contributed to his subsequent success?<\/p>\n<p>Hoque\u2019s research is unique. And he\u2019s drawn on personal family experiences to find applications for it that address universal needs. His brother, for example, has Down\u2019s syndrome, which helped inspire Hoque\u2019s interest in developing an automated coaching app that could help people with disabilities hone their speaking and social skills.<\/p>\n<p>He has not shied away from media coverage as a way of drawing the attention of funding agencies, and of the public at large. \u201cI believe outreach is always useful,\u201d Hoque says. \u201cIf it is a way for my research to be propagated, and for others to know about it, that\u2019s a good thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s grateful he\u2019s had the opportunity to collaborate with \u201ca smart set of people,\u201d including University of Rochester researchers in family medicine (Ronald Epstein and Paul Duberstein), psychiatry (Kimberley van Orden), neurology (Ray Dorsey and Ania Busza), pediatrics (Tristam Smith), physics (Gourab Ghoshal), psychology (Ron Rogge), electrical and computer engineering (Mateos Gonzalo), and \u201call the AI faculty in computer science.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And he\u2019s continued to apply the lessons of resiliency he learned so well as an undergraduate. Hoque, like other researchers, knows what it means to carefully craft a grant application or scholarly paper, only to see it rejected.<\/p>\n<p>However, \u201cwhen you have a plan, and you keep trying and trying, you maximize your chances of being successful,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why, year by year, he keeps a running list on a Google doc of all the possible opportunities he\u2019s planning to pursue, months, and even years, in advance.<\/p>\n<p>Most of these, he concedes, don\u2019t pan out, and end up marked in red.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the plan itself is so outrageous,\u201d Hoque says, \u201cthat even if just one percent of it succeeds, I know that I\u2019ve accomplished something.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An expert in
