Dr. Jenq-Neng Hwang received the BS and MS degrees, both in electrical engineering from the National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan, in 1981 and 1983 separately. After two years of obligatory military services, he enrolled as a research assistant in 1985 at the Signal and Image Processing Institute, Dept. of Electrical Engineering, University of Southern California, where he received his Ph.D. degree in December 1988. He was also a visiting student at Princeton University, New Jersey, from 1987 to 1989.
In the summer of 1989, Dr. Hwang joined the Department of Electrical Engineering of the University of Washington in Seattle, where he has been promoted to Full Professor since 1999. He also served as the Associate Chair for Research & Development in the EE Department from 2003 to 2005. He has published more than 200 journal and conference papers and book chapters in the areas of image/video signal processing, computational neural networks, multimedia system integration, and networking. Dr. Hwang received the 1995 IEEE Signal Processing Society's Annual Best Paper Award (with Shyh-Rong Lay and Alan Lippman) in the area of Neural Networks for Signal Processing.
He is a founding member of the Multimedia Signal Processing Technical Committee of IEEE Signal Processing Society. He served as the Chairman of the Neural Networks Signal Processing Technical Committee in IEEE Signal Processing Society from 1996 to 1998. He served as an associate editor for IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing from 1992 to 1994 and an associate editor for IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks from 1992 to 2000. He is now an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology, and an Editor for Journal of Information Science and Engineering. He is also on the editorial board of Journal of VLSI Signal Processing Systems for Signal, Image, and Video Technology.
