Biography
Tinku Acharya (M'96–SM'01) received the B.Tech and M.Tech degrees from the University of Calcutta, Kolkata, India, in 1987 and 1989, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree from the University of Central Florida, Orlando, in 1994, all in computer science.
He is a Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Avisere Inc., Tucson, AZ. He is also an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Arizona State University, Tempe. During 1996–2002, he was with Intel Corporation, Arizona, where he led several research and development teams in numerous projects toward the development of algorithms and architectures in image and video processing, multimedia computing, PC-based digital camera, high-performance reprographics architecture for color photocopiers, biometrics, multimedia for third-generation cellular mobile telephony, microprocessors, etc. Before joining Intel Corporation in 1996, he was a Consulting Engineer with AT&T Bell Laboratories (1995–1996), NJ, a Research Faculty in the Institute of Systems Research, Institute of Advanced Computer Studies, University of Maryland at College Park (1994–1995), a Systems Analyst at the National Informatics Centre, Planning Commission, Government of India (1988–1990), and a Visiting Professor at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (in several occasions during 1998–2001), in addition to many other professional assignments. He has collaborated in research and development with the Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) of Xerox Corporation and the Kodak Corporation. He is an inventor of 83 awarded U.S. patents and 15 European patents in different areas of research and development. He is the author of Image Processing: Principles and Applications, JPEG2000 Standard for Image Compression: Concepts, Algorithms and VLSI Architectures, and Data Mining: Multimedia, Soft Computing, and Bioinformatics (New York: Wiley). He is a Co-Editor of Information Technology: Principles and Applications (New Delhi, India: Prentice-Hall). He has over 75 refereed technical papers published in international journals, conferences, and book chapters. His current research interests include computer vision for enterprise applications, multimedia computing, biometrics, image processing, very large scale integration architectures, and algorithms.
Dr. Acharya was awarded the Most Prolific Inventor in Intel Corporation Worldwide in 1999 and the Most Prolific Inventor in Intel Corporation, Arizona, for five consecutive years (1997–2001). He is a Life Fellow of the Institution of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineers. He has served in the U.S. National Body of Joint Photographic Experts Group 2000 Standard Committee (1998–2002), and in the program committees of several international conferences and academic and industrial organizations.
