Dr. Sajid is an assistant professor of computer vision at Khalifa University of Science and Technology, UAE. He is affiliated with Khalifa University Centre of Autonomous Robotics Systems (KUCARS), and the University of Warwick, United Kingdom. Dr. Sajid received his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the Kyungpook National University, Republic of Korea, and his B.Sc. (Hons) degree in Computer Science from the University of Hertfordshire, United Kingdom. Previously, he has worked as a research fellow at the University of Warwick, University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire, United Kingdom, and KUCARS, UAE.
He leads the computer vision group in KUCARS and has extensive experience working on computer vision, machine learning, and artificial intelligence research projects. He has published many high-quality and high-impact factor papers in leading computer vision journals and conferences (e.g., Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, Transactions on Image Processing, Transactions on Cybernetics, Medical Image Analysis). His current research interests span the field of computer vision and computational pathology. This includes visual tracking from video sequences, multi-object tracking, object detection, background-foreground modeling, background subtraction, video object segmentation, histology image classification, tissue phenotyping, nucleus detection, and nucleus classification from routine Hematoxylin and Eosin Whole Slide Images. He is also a member of IEEE and ACM.
Dr. Sajid is currently working on three different projects including Artificial Intelligence for Oceans Surveillance, Detecting Cancerous footprints from the histopathological landscape, and the flagship competition/project Muhammad Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge-2023. Dr. Javed is supervising is also supervising several PhD., Ms.c., and Postdocs candidates in those projects. Dr. Javed is also the area chair of the Asian Conference on Computer Vision (ACCV-2022) and the Internation Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) 2023.
I am actively looking for a research associate/research engineer and postdocs to join projects related to computer vision and machine learning problems. Interested applicants with a strong track record of publications in computer vision venues are encouraged to contact me.
