Frontier Technologies Seminars 2022 by HKUST-BDR Joint Research Institute - Event and 360 Camera-based Vision for Intelligent Systems

Dr. WANG Lin (Addison) is an Assistant Professor in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Thrust of Information Hub (GZ Campus). He was a Postdoc researcher at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) from August to December 2021. Before that, he got his Ph.D. Degree (with highest Ph.D. Research Award) from KAIST, working with Prof. Kuk-Jin Yoon (KAIST) and Prof. Tae-Kyun Kim (Imperial College London). Dr. WANG had study and research experience in three Departments (Mechanical Eng., Industrial Eng., and Computer Science), and he is familiar with the inter-disciplinary research problems. His research interests lie in computer vision, computational photography, deep learning, and intelligent systems, especially self-driving cars, robotics, VR/AR, and Metaverse. His research highlights are mainly manifested in computer vision with the novel camera sensors (neuromorphic, thermal, and omnidirectional cameras), vision in all seasons, adverse vision problems, low-level vision, and visual understanding for intelligent systems. His research passion is to break the limitations of traditional RGB camera-based computer vision and make the computer vision algorithms more adaptive to tackling real-world problems.
