Dr. Jiandong Tian received his B.S. degree in the department of automation, Heilongjiang University, P. R. China, in 2005. In 2011 he received his doctoral degree in Pattern Recognition and Intelligent Systems from Shenyang Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Currently he is a professor in State Key Laboratory of Robotics, Shenyang Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences. During 2015.6-2016.6, he was a Visiting Professor at Center for Visual Computing, University of California, San Diego. His research interests include robot vision, illumination modeling, and image/video processing. He has published more than 50 papers in this field. Fairly amount of them have been published in well-known journals and top conferences in computer/robot vision. Dr. Tian gained the first prize of natural science award of Chinese Association of Automation in 2019 and the first prize of natural science award of Liaoning Province in 2020, respectively.
