Professional Bio

Zhongfei (Mark) Zhang received his BS (cum laude) in Electronics Engineering and MS in Information Science, both from Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China, and PhD in Computer Science from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. When he was in graduate school, he also worked as an intern at NEC Research Institute, Inc. in Princeton, N.J., and as a technical consultant at Applied Artificial Intelligence, Inc. (formerly Amerinex Artificial Intelligence, Inc.) in Amherst, Mass. He was a research scientist of the Center of Excellence for Document Analysis and Recognition and was on the faculty of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, both at SUNY Buffalo. He joined the faculty of the Department of Computer Science at Binghamton University in fall 1999. He has published over 90 peer-reviewed academic papers in international and national journals and conferences and several invited papers and book chapters, has edited or co-edited two books, has served as reviewer or program committee member for many international journals and conferences and has served as a grant review panelist for several governmental and private funding agencies including NSF and NASA. He is a senior member of IEEE, a member of the IEEE Computer Society and a member of the  ACM. He is an associate editor for Pattern Recognition and guest editor for IEEE Transactions on Multimedia and ACM Multimedia Systems Journal.
