Jing Peng

Biography

Jing Peng received phd from Northeastern University and at present serves as professor in the department of computer sciences. His research interests follow three diverse but related tracks: 1. Reinforcement learning and its applications to control and multi-agent systems. In general terms, reinforcement learning is concerned with computational approaches to learning from reward; Image retrieval, in particular content-based retrieval where he consider indexing schemes that allow flexible retrieval metrics to be created on the fly so that very large databases can be accessed efficiently and accurately; Classification and data mining, where he is particularly interested in adaptive metric nearest-neighbor techniques and compact subspace representation for building robust classifiers from limited training data. He published several papers in various journals.
