Professor Ronald Lui of Department of Mathematics has been awarded The Hong Kong Mathematics Society Young Scholar Award 2018 in recognition of his significant contributions in computational geometry and image processing. His research brought into use deep theory that has been developed on conformal maps and Teichmueller theory, and contributes significantly to a vibrant interface between pure and applied mathematics.
His work on using conformal or quasi-conformal mappings in image processing has opened a new avenue to treat image processing problems, including the surface registration and parameterization problem, fast and accurate numerical algorithms for conformal or quasi-conformal mapping, and the establishment of shape analysis models. |
