Prof. Rama Chellappa is a Minta Martin Professor of Engineering and Chair of the ECE department at the University of Maryland. Prof. Chellappa received the K.S. Fu Prize from the International Association of Pattern Recognition (IAPR). He is a recipient of the Society, Technical Achievement and Meritorious Service Awards from the IEEE Signal Processing Society. He also received the Technical Achievement and Meritorious Service Awards from the IEEE Computer Society. At UMD, he received college and university level recognitions for research, teaching innovation and mentoring of undergraduate students. In 2010, he was recognized as an Outstanding ECE by Prude university. Prof. Chellappa served at the Editor-in-Chief of PAMI. He is a Golden Core Member of the IEEE Computer Society, served as a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE Signal Processing Society and as the President of IEEE Biometrics Council. He is a Fellow of IEEE, IAPR, OSA, AAAS, ACM and AAAI and holds four patents.
Jeffrey Cohn, University of Pittsburgh
Jeffrey Cohn is Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh and Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. He leads interdisciplinary and inter-institutional efforts to develop advanced methods of automatic analysis and synthesis of facial expression and prosody; and applies those tools to research in human emotion, social development, non-verbal communication, psychopathology, and biomedicine. He has served as Co-Chair of the 2008 and 2015 IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG2008) (FG2015), the 2009 International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction (ACII2009), the Steering Committee for IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition, and the 2014 International Conference on Multimodal Interaces (ACM 2014). He has co-edited special issues of the Journal of Image and Vision Computing and is a Co-Editor of IEEE Transactions in Affective Computing (TAC). His research has been supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health, National Science Foundation, Autism Foundation, Office of Naval Research, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and other sponsors.
Florian Schroff, Google
Florian Schroof got his PhD in Semantic Image Segmentation and Web-Supervised Visual Learning at the University of Oxford in the Visual Geometry Group in 2009. Dr Schroff was postdoc at the UCSD vision group during 2009-2011, where he conducted research in unconstrained face and object recognition. He started at Google as a Software Engineer in 2011. There he has done state-of-the-art computer vision research that is used in Personal Photo search and Goggles.
