Qixing Huang

Associate Professor
Assistant Professor Qixing Huang joined UT Computer Science in 2016. He obtained his PhD in Computer Science from Stanford University. Before joining UT Austin, Dr. Huang was a research assistant professor at Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago. His research spans the fields of computer vision, computer graphics, and machine learning. In particular, his recent focus is on developing machine learning algorithms, particularly deep learning, that leverage Big Data to solve core problems in computer vision, computer graphics and computational biology. Dr. Huang is extensively published in venues such as SIGGRAPH, CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeuriPS, and ICML.

Research

Research Interests: 

His research spans the fields of computer vision, computer graphics, and machine learning.

In particular, his recent focus is on developing machine learning algorithms (particularly deep learning) that leverage Big Data to solve core problems in computer vision, computer graphics and computational biology.

Dr. Huang is also interested in statistical data analysis, compressive sensing, low-rank matrix recovery, and large-scale optimization, which provides theoretical foundation for his research.
