Chao Liang

Basic Information

Chao Liang received the B.S degree in Automation from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), Wuhan, China, in 2006 and the Ph.D degree from National Lab of Pattern Recognition (NLPR), Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA), Beijing, China, in 2012. He is currently working as an associate professor at National Engineering Research Center for Multimedia Software (NERCMS), Computer School, Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.

Dr. Liang’s research interests focus on multimedia content analysis, computer vision and pattern recognition, where he has published over 50 papers, including premier conferences such as CVPR, ACM MM, IJCAI and famous journals like TMM and TCSVT. He is now served as a reviewer for ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, communications and Applications (TOMCCAP) and IEEE Transaction on Multimedia (TMM).

Dr. Liang received the best paper award of PCM 2014 and the Winner’s Price in Nokia Innovation Contest in 2009 and 2010, respectively.
