Dr He Wang

Profile

I am an Associate Professor at the School of Computing, University of Leeds, UK. I am the Director of High-Performance Graphics and Game Engineering and Academic Lead of Centre for Immersive Technology. My current research interest is mainly in computer graphics, vision and machine learning and applications. Previously I was a Postdoctoral Associate at Disney Research Los Angeles. I received my PhD and did a post-doc afterwards both in School of Informatics, the University of Edinburgh, where I mainly worked on motion control of character, deformable object control and 3D scene analysis. Before my PhD, I worked in the industry for 4 years after graduating from the College of Computer Science and Technology, Zhejiang University, China.
