معرفی
Jianbo Jiao is an Associate Professor in Computer Vision and Machine Learning at the School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham, where he leads the MIx (Machine Intelligence + x) research group. Previously, he was a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Biomedical Image Analysis (BioMedIA) group and Visual Geometry Group (VGG) at the University of Oxford, working on the SeeBiByte and VisualAI projects.
- MSc from Peking University (2015)
- PhD in Computer Science from City University of Hong Kong (2018), supported by Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme
- Visiting scholar at Beckman Institute, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2017-2018)
Dr. Jiao's research focuses on Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Healthcare AI, and AI for Science. His work primarily investigates learning representations in open-world scenarios by exploring auxiliary information from multiple modalities (image/video, speech/audio, text/NLP, depth/stereo, gaze/saliency, motion) and reducing dependency on supervision through self-supervised, weakly-supervised, and semi-supervised learning approaches. His group has made significant contributions to multimodal learning, medical image analysis, and 3D vision.
His recent publications demonstrate strong trends in multimodal learning, medical AI applications, and 3D computer vision. The research spans fundamental computer vision tasks like segmentation and scene understanding while addressing practical challenges in healthcare and scientific domains. Notably, there's significant focus on making vision systems more robust to distribution shifts and requiring less labeled data.

Dr. Jiao serves as Associate Editor for The Transactions on Machine Learning Research (TMLR) and IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology (T-CSVT), and has been actively contributing to the community as Area Chair for NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, and ACM MM. His MIx group has secured multiple research grants including the Amazon Research Award for the PCo3D project on Physically Plausible Controllable 3D Generative Models. Current PhD students include Isaac Akintaro, Hao Ai, and Kangning Zhang.
The MIx group maintains active collaborations with industry partners including Amazon and Meta, and has developed notable datasets such as 360+x for panoptic multi-modal scene understanding and DyMVHumans for dynamic human modeling. Their research bridges fundamental computer vision with practical applications in healthcare, physics, chemistry, and other scientific domains.
