Short Bio: Heng Fan is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of North Texas. He received his B.S. in Computer Science and Technology from Huazhong Agricultural University in 2013 and Ph.D. (advised by Professor Haibin Ling) in Computer Science from Stony Brook University in 2021, respectively. His research interests include computer vision with a particular interest in various video analysis tasks using vision and language, robotics with a focus on robot vision perception, and medical image analysis. He serves or has served as an Associate Editor for Pattern Recognition (PR) and Image and Vision Computing (IVC), and as an Area Chair for conferences including ICCV, NeurIPS, BMVC, WACV, and ICME.
To prospective students: I am looking for self-motivated PhD/master/undergraduate/TAMS students and (remote) research interns to work on interesting problems in computer and robotic vision. If you are interested, please read HERE.
