Prof Paul F. Whelan

Biographical Details:

Prof. Paul F Whelan was appointed to the School of Electronic Engineering, Dublin City University in 1990 and is currently Professor of Computer Vision (Personal Chair). Prof. Whelan found the Vision Systems Laboratory and its associated Vision Systems Group in 1990 and the Centre for Image Processing & Analysis in 2006 and currently serves as its director. As well as publishing over 150 peer reviewed papers, Prof. Whelan has published 3 books including the edited collection Selected Papers on Industrial Machine Vision Systems and the monographs Intelligent Vision Systems for Industry and Machine Vision Algorithms in Java. His research interests include image segmentation (specifically mathematical morphology, texture analysis) with applications in computer vision and medical imaging. He is a Senior Member of the IEEE a Chartered Engineer, a member of IAPR and a Fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). He is also a member of a range of computer vision related conference program committees and acts as a reviewer for the main computer/machine vision journals. He served on the IEE Irish centre committee (1999-2002) and as the national representative and member of the governing board (1998-2007) of the International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR), a member of the International Federation of Classification Societies (IFCS) council and the inaugural President (1998-2007) of the Irish Pattern Recognition and Classification Society. Prof Whelan has filed 7 patents since 2007 and was the winner of the DCU INVENT (ICT/Engineering Section) Invention Disclosure Award in 2007 & 2008 and the a DCU INVENT commercialization award for Jaliko Ltd in 2010. Prof. Whelan has successfully developed a royalty bearing license of his biomedical technology for DCU along with a spin-out company (Jaliko Ltd) focusing on the removal of aberrations in digital imaging systems. He was winner of the Presidents Research Award 2010/2011. http://elm.eeng.dcu.ie/~whelanp/home.html
