Keynote Presentation

"Intelligent Pattern Recognition and Applications
-Modeling and Simulation in HC Interactive Environment "

 
By Professor Patrick S.P. Wang, Tenured Full Professor at Northeastern
University, USA, and the Zijiang Visiting Chair Professor at ECNU, Shanghai, China

 

Bio:

Prof. Patrick S.P. Wang, PhD., IAPR Fellow, ISIBM Fellow, and IEEE Outstanding Achievement Awardee, is a Tenured
Full Professor at Northeastern University, USA, and the Zijiang Visiting Chair Professor at ECNU, Shanghai, China. He has
also been the iCORE (Informatics Circle of Research Excellence) Visiting Professor at the University of Calgary, Canada,
the Otto-Von-Guericke Distinguished Guest Professor at Magdeburg University, Germany. He served as an Honorary
Advisory Professor for several key universities in China, including Sichuan University, Xiamen University, East China
Normal University, Shanghai, and Guangxi Normal University, Guilin. Prof. Wang received his BSEE from National Chiao
Tung University (Jiaotong University), MSEE from National Taiwan University, MSICS from Georgia Institute of
Technology, and PhD Computer Science from Oregon State University.

Dr. Wang has published over 25 books, 150 technical papers, holds 3 US/European Patents, in PR/AI/TV/Cybernetics/Imaging/Biometrics, and is currently the founding Editor-in-Chief of IJPRAI (International Journal
of Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence) and Book Series of MPAI, WSP. One of his books, Image
Pattern Recognition: Synthesis and Analysis in Biometrics, is so widely cited that it is being used for reference by the
USA Department of Homeland Security for "Security Synthetic Biometrics," 2010 grant proposal solicitation (DHS(S&T)SBIR
FY-10.1H-SB010.1005). Beyond his technical interests, Dr. Wang also published a prose book, “Harvard Meditation
Melody” (哈佛冥想曲)along with many articles and poems regarding Du Fu and Li Bai’s poems, Beethoven, Brahms,
Mozart and Tchaikovsky’s symphonies, and Bizet, Verdi, Puccini and Rossini’s operas.




Abstract:

This talk deals with fundamental aspects of Intelligent Pattern Recognition (IPR) and applications.
It basically includes the following: Overview of 3D Biometric Technology and Applications,  Importance of Security: A Scenario of Terrorists Attack, What are Biometric Technologies?, Biometrics: Analysis vs Synthesis, Analysis:
Interactive Pattern Recognition Concept, Importance of Measurement, How it works: Fingerprint Extraction and
Matching, Iris, and Facial Analysis, Authentication Applications, Thermal Imaging: Emotion Recognition. Synthesis in Biometrics, Modeling and Simulation, and more Examples and Applications of 3D Biomedical Imaging in Interactive
Web/Video Networking Fuzzy Learning Environment.
Finally, some future research directions are discussed.
