Dr. Yongzhen Huang received his B.E. degree from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in 2006, and his Ph.D. degree from Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA) in 2011. Then he joined National Laboratory of Pattern Recognition (NLPR) as an Assistant Professor in July 2011, and became an Associated Professor since Nov. 2013. His research interests include computer vision, pattern recognition, machine learning, and computational visual cognition. He has published 1 book and more than 60 papers in international journals and conferences such as IEEE TPAMI, IJCV, IEEE TIP, IEEE TMSC-B, IEEE TCSVT, TMM, Neurocomputing, CVPR, ICCV, NIPS and AAAI. He has obtained several honors and awards, including the Excellent Doctoral Thesis of Chinese Association for Artificial Intelligence (2012), the Best Student Paper of Chinese Conference on Computer Vision (2015), the Champion of PASCAL VOC Challenges on object detection (2010 and 2011), the Runner-up of PASCAL VOC Challenges on object classification (2011), and the Champion of Internet Contest for Cloud & Mobile Computing on Human Segmentation with 230,000RMB (2013), the Second Prize and the Prize of Highest Accuracy with Low Energy in LPIRC (Low-Power Image Recognition Challenge) (2015). Dr. Huang is currently a member of IEEE. He has served as Associate Editor of Neurocomputing, the web chair of AVSS2012, the publicity chair of CCPR2012, the program committee member of 6 conferences, and the peer reviewer of over 20 journals and conferences.
