Prof. Thierry Blu, Chinese University of Hong Kong
Thierry Blu received the "Diplôme d'ingénieur" from École Polytechnique, France, in 1986 and from Télécom Paris (ENST), France, in 1988. In 1996, he obtained a Ph.D in electrical engineering from ENST for a study on iterated rational filterbanks, applied to wideband audio coding.
Between 1998 and 2007, he was with the Biomedical Imaging Group at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Lausanne, Switzerland. He is now a Professor in the Department of Electronic Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
Dr. Blu was the recipient of two best paper awards from the IEEE Signal Processing Society (2003 and 2006). He is also coauthor of a paper that received a Young Author best paper award (2009) from the same society. He has been an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Image Processing (2002-2006), the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing (2006-2010), Elsevier Signal Processing (2008-2011). He was a member of the IEEE Signal Processing Theory and Methods Technical Committee (2008-2013), and is now in the Bio Imaging and Signal Processing Technical Committee (2017-). He is also on the board of Eurasip J. on Image and Video Processing (2010-).
He was elected Fellow of the IEEE in 2012 for "fundamental contributions to approximation theory in signal and image processing"
