Hui Yu’s research interests include visual and cognitive computing, social robot and machine learning. His research particularly focuses on 3D/4D facial expression reconstruction and social signal analysis, video/image understanding for human-machine and social interaction as well as intelligent vehicle applications.
Prof. Yu leads the Visual Computing and Social Robot Group (VCSR) in cSCAN at the University of Glasgow. He has been awarded the Industrial Fellowship by the Royal Academy of Engineering. His research has been funded by EPSRC, EU FP7, Horizon Europe, Royal Academy of Engineering, Royal Society, Innovate UK, industries and so on. He has also been awarded the Newton International Fellowship project by Royal Society. Prof. Yu serves as the Associate Vice President of the IEEE Systems, Man and Cybernetics Society (SMC), and the Chair of the IEEE Technical Committee on Social Computing and Social Intelligence. He is an Associate Editor for several journals including Neurocomputing, IEEE Transactions on Human-Machine Systems, IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Vehicles and IEEE Transactions on Computational Social Systems as well as Deputy Editor-in-Chief for International Journal of Network Dynamics and Intelligence (2022-).
