Associate Professor
Dr. Guangliang Cheng is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Liverpool. His research focuses on deep learning, computer vision, and perception algorithms with applications in remote sensing, medical imaging, and autonomous systems. Prior to his current role, he served as a vice research director in the Autonomous Driving Group at SenseTime and completed postdoctoral research at the Aerospace Information Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Ph.D. in Pattern Recognition from the National Laboratory of Pattern Recognition (NLPR), Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA) Postdoctoral Researcher at Aerospace Information Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences (2017–2019) Dr. Cheng’s research integrates computer vision and deep learning to address challenges in semantic segmentation, domain adaptation, and robust detection. Recent work explores wavelet-based multimodal fusion for remote sensing and attention-guided architectures for medical imaging. His 2025 publications span journals like GIScience & Remote Sensing and Knowledge-Based Systems , emphasizing scalable solutions for geospatial and biomedical applications. In 2025, Dr. Cheng’s article trends highlight remote sensing semantic segmentation, cross-domain medical imaging, and drone-based fire detection. His collaborations span institutions such as SenseTime, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and University of Liverpool teams, focusing on frequency-domain fusion, attention mechanisms, and GPU optimization. As a supervisor, Dr. Cheng seeks highly motivated PhD students to join projects supported by scholarships including the Centres for Doctoral Training (CDT) and Duncan Norman Scholarship. He serves as Module Co-ordinator for COMP338: Computer Vision (2024–2025) and actively reviews for top-tier journals and conferences.
