Dr. Akbar Sheikh Akbari is an associate professor (Reader) of Electronic Engineering in the School of Built Environment, Engineering and Computing. He has a B.Sc. (Hons), M.Sc. (distinction), and Ph.D. in Electronic and Electrical Engineering. After completing his Ph.D. at Strathclyde University, he joined Bristol University to work on an EPSRC project in stereo/multi-viewvideo processing. Dr. Sheikh Akbari’s main areas of research are: biometric identification techniques, e.g., iris, ear, and face recognition, image resolution enhancement (super-resolution) methods, image source camera identification, color constancy (white balancing) techniques, standard and non-standard image/video codecs, e.g., H.264 and HEVC, multi-view image/video processing, video analytics and real-time embedded systems, edge detection in low SNR environments, compressive sensing, retro-reflective materials, online camera calibration. Dr. Sheikh Akbari was the academic supervisor for the following KTP project: Omega Security Systems/Leeds Beckett University, “Research, develop and implement a scalable and modular system which monitors and analyses individual behavioural patterns and movements in a range of environments”, Funder: innovate UK, 24 months, £122,040, which was graded outstanding by innovate UK.
