Ming-Ming Cheng is a research fellow at Brookes Vision Group (transfering to University of Oxford), working withProf. Philip Torr. Earlier, he received his PhD degree fromTsinghua University in 2012 under guidance ofProf. Shi-Min Hu, and working closely withNiloy Mitra. During his PhD study, Dr. Cheng was funded byGoogle PhD fellowship,IBM PhD fellowship, and Scholarship Award for Excellent Doctoral Student funded by Chinese Ministry of Education. Dr. Cheng’s research primarily centers on algorithmic issues in image understanding and processing, including image segmentation, editing, retrieval, etc. [CV]
Research
I’m currently working on image scene analysis, editing, and retrieval. These works are mainly in following aspects: (I) biological motivated salient region detection and segmentation; (II) sketch based image retrieval and composition; (III) interactive image analysis and manipulation; (IV) similar scene elements analysis for smart image manipulation. These works tried to recover parts of scene object level information from images according to biological inspiration, or with the help of simple user assist in sketch form. Such scene object level information includes one or more parts of the following aspects: object of interest regions, object correspondence, region layering, symmetry, repetition, and 3D relations. Ideally, we expect automatic extraction of full 3D information, categories names, attributes, and object relations about the underlying image scene for intelligent image understanding, manipulation, organization, and retrieval.
