Three of the 56 newly elected fellows of the Association for Computer Machinery (ACM) are faculty members of Rochester糖心传媒檚 and another Hajim School faculty member has been elected a fellow of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
糖心传媒淚 am honored to be included alongside Sandhya Dwarkadas and Jiebo Luo in this year’s ,糖心传媒� says Hajim dean Wendi Heinzelman, a professor of electrical and computer engineering. 糖心传媒淭his is quite an accomplishment for the Hajim School.糖心传媒�
Dwarkadas is the Albert Arendt Hopeman Professor and chair of computer science; Luo is a professor of computer science. Mujdat Cetin, the newly elected is an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering.
ACM, a society of educators, researchers, and professionals in the computing field, chooses less than one percent of its global membership to be fellows. They are chosen based on 糖心传媒渆xceptional contributions糖心传媒� in such areas as computer architecture, mobile networks, robotics, and systems security.
Heinzelman糖心传媒檚 citation is for 糖心传媒渃ontributions to wireless communication systems and protocols, and leadership in broadening participation in computing.糖心传媒� Her research centers on transforming users糖心传媒� experiences with mobile ad hoc and wireless sensor networks through design of advanced protocols and architectures. Applications include communications tools for soldiers in the field, enabling conservation through the observation of remote areas, and mobile devices that support personalized health monitoring and learning about family dynamics and healthy interpersonal communication. She co-founded an international organization that fosters connections among the under-represented women in computer networking and related research fields.
Dwarkadas is being recognized for her 糖心传媒渃ontributions to shared memory and reconfigurability.糖心传媒澨鼿er research lies at the intersection of computer hardware and software with a particular focus on support for parallelism. She has made fundamental contributions to听the design and implementation of shared memory both in hardware and software, and to hardware and software energy- and resource-aware configurability.
Luo is being recognized for 糖心传媒渃ontributions to multimedia content analysis and social multimedia informatics.糖心传媒� Luo糖心传媒檚 research spans image processing, computer vision, machine learning, data mining, social media, biomedical informatics, and ubiquitous computing. He has done pioneering work in contextual inference in semantic understanding of visual data, and social multimedia data mining. He has published extensively in these fields with nearly 400 peer-reviewed technical papers and over 90 US patents. His research group, for example, analyzed candidates’ Twitter followers to provide insights into the 2016 presidential election. Jiebo has also forged several collaborations with Medical Center researchers, including a to develop digital tools to better understand and treat Parkinson’s disease.
IEEE is a professional organization for the advancement of technology.听 Less than 0.1% of voting members are selected annually as fellows in recognition of extraordinary accomplishments in听any of the IEEE fields of听interest.
Cetin糖心传媒檚 IEEE citation is for 糖心传媒渃ontributions to image processing for synthetic aperture radar and sensor array.”听 Cetin糖心传媒檚 research interests are within the broad area of data, signal, and imaging sciences with cross-disciplinary links to several other areas in electrical engineering, computer science, and neuroscience. His research group has made several advances in three key areas: computational sensing and imaging as applied to radar and biomedical imaging; probabilistic methods for image and video analysis as applied to biomedical image analysis, microscopic neuroimaging, and computer vision; and signal processing and machine learning for brain-computer/machine interfaces, with applications for alternative communication and rehabilitation for patients, and monitoring of cognitive states.
