Presenters

Ghassan AlRegib is currently the John and McCarty Chair Professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He received the ECE Outstanding Junior Faculty Member Award, in 2008 and the 2017 Denning Faculty Award for Global Engagement. His research group, the Omni Lab for Intelligent Visual Engineering and Science (OLIVES) works on research projects related to machine learning, image and video processing, image and video understanding, seismic interpretation, machine learning for ophthalmology, and video analytics. He has participated in several service activities within the IEEE. He served as the TP co-Chair for ICIP 2020. He is an IEEE Fellow.

Mohit Prabhushankar received his Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech), Atlanta, Georgia, 30332, USA, in 2021. He is currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology in the Omni Lab for Intelligent Visual Engineering and Science (OLIVES). He is working in the fields of image processing, machine learning, active learning, healthcare, and robust and explainable AI. He is the recipient of the Best Paper award at ICIP 2019 and Top Viewed Special Session Paper Award at ICIP 2020. He is the recipient of the ECE Outstanding Graduate Teaching Award, the CSIP Research award, and of the Roger P Webb ECE Graduate Research Excellence award, all in 2022.
