Biography
Dr Hanhe Lin obtained his PhD degree from University of Otago (New Zealand) in 2016. From 2016 to 2021, he was a postdoctoral researcher at University of Konstanz (Germany), funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). After being a research fellow at National Subsea Centre (Robert Gordon University) for a short period, he is currently a Lecturer in Computing at School of Science and Engineering, University of Dundee.
As an active researcher in his research domain, Dr Lin served as a member of the technical program committee or a reviewer in numerous prestigious conferences such as QoMEX, ICIP, and ICME. Since 2016, he has been serving regularly as a reviewer for journals such as IEEE Trans. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, IEEE Trans. Image Processing, and IEEE Trans. Multimedia. Currently, he is serving as guest editor for the MDPI Journal of Imaging and associate editor for the Frontier in Imaging.
Research
Dr Lin’s research interests are predominantly in computer vision, machine learning, medical image analysis, and crowdsourcing. His current research topics mainly focus on Visual Quality Assessment. Using techniques crowdsourcing, machine learning, deep learning, and eye-tracking, he has established benchmark datasets and designed computational models for predicting the visual quality of images and videos, with respect to technical and perceptual aspects.
