معرفی
Dr. Shahrukh Athar is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at McMaster University. His research focuses on perceptual image quality assessment (IQA), degraded-reference and multiply-distorted image analysis, and digital signal/video processing. He also emphasizes educational development, particularly active learning strategies and pedagogical training for colleagues and graduate students.
He teaches courses such as COMPENG 2DX3 (Microprocessor Systems Project), COMPENG 2SH4 (Principles of Programming), ELECENG 2CI4 (Introduction to Electrical Engineering), and ELECENG 3CL4 (Introduction to Control Systems). His work bridges machine learning applications in IQA with practical educational methodologies.
Dr. Athar's research includes developing robust no-reference IQA algorithms using deep learning and constructing large-scale datasets. He has published extensively on topics like image debanding, blind quality assessment, and FPGA-based signal processing implementations. His LinkedIn and other professional profiles highlight interdisciplinary contributions in both technical and educational domains.
