Biography

Dong Xu received the B.Eng. and PhD degrees from University of Science and Technology of China, in 2001 and 2005, respectively. While pursuing the PhD degree, he worked at Microsoft Research Asia and The Chinese University of Hong Kong for more than two years. He also worked at Columbia University for one year as a postdoctoral research scientist. In May 2007, he joined Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, where he is currently an associate professor with School of Computer Engineering.

His research focuses on new theories, algorithms and systems for intelligent processing and understanding of visual data such as images and videos. He has published more than 80 papers in top venues including T-PAMI, T-IP, T-NN/T-NNLS, T-CSVT, T-MM, T-SMC-B, T-BME, CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, ACM MM, ICML, ICDM, MICCAI and IJCAI. He was the co-author (with his former PhD student Lixin Duan) of a paper that won the Best Student Paper Award in CVPR 2010. His publications have been cited more than 1000 times in Web of Sciences. Since 2008, he has received over S$2.8M in research grant funding, from Singapore National Research Foundation (NRF), A*STAR, Ministry of Education (MOE), and Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA). The former PhD students Yi Huang and Lixin Duan in his research group were awarded the prestigious MSRA Fellowship Awards in 2008 and 2009, respectively.

He is on the editorial boards of IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems and Machine Vision and Applications (Springer). He is currently serving as a guest editor of a special issue on Domain Adaptation for Vision Applications in IJCV and a special issue on Computer Vision for RGB-D Sensors: Kinect and Its Applications in T-SMC-B. He has served as an area chair of CVPR 2012, a program co-chair of The 2012 Pacific-Rim Conference on Multimedia (PCM 2012), and guest editors of four special issues in T-CSVT, ACM TOMCCAP, CVIU and IEEE Multimedia
