Qiangfu Zhao

University of Aizu, Japan

Prof. Qiangfu Zhao is a professor at the System Intelligence Laboratory, University of Aizu. I was an associate professor of this university from 1995 to 1999, associate professor of Tohoku University from 1993 to 1995, associate professor of Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT) from 1991 to 1993, and post-doctoral fellow at BIT from 1988 to 1991. His research is machine learning, which is an important branch in artificial intelligence (AI). The learning models he is using include neural networks (NNs), decision trees (DTs), and some hybrid models. So far he has studied learning of distance-based neural networks (DBNNs), induction of neural network trees (NNTrees), and induction of nearest neighbor classification trees (NNC-Trees), and got many interesting results. Currently, he is especially interested in applications of machine learning to face pattern recognition, document classification and analysis, development of user friendly systems, authentication of card holders, and so on. So far, He has published many refereed papers in journals and international conferences.
