Dr. K. Vijayan Asari Professor Ph.D., Indian Institute of Technology, Madras Signal processing, image processing, multiple-valued neural networks and high performance digital architectures for application specific integrated circuits.

Dr. Asari received his BSc. Engineering degree in electronics and communication engineering from the University of Kerala, India, in 1978, the M. Tech and Ph. D degrees in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, in 1984 and 1994 respectively. He had been working as an Assistant Professor in electronics and communications at TKM College of Engineering, University of Kerala, India. In 1996, he joined the National University of Singapore as a Research Fellow and lead the research team for the development of a fully autonomous and intelligent microrobotic endoscopy system. He joined the School of Computer Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore in 1998. He has been involved in research activities in the areas of signal processing, image processing, neural networks and digital architectures for application specific integrated circuits. His research publications include articles on barrel distortion correction in wide-angle-camera images, adaptive progressive thresholding, differential region growing, quad-tree and Iris-filter based image segmentation algorithms, design of intelligent microrobotic endoscopy system, multiple-valued logic neural networks with multi-level threshold functions, multiple-valued neural networks for pattern recognition and prediction, systolic architectures for neural networks and pipelined architectures for image segmentation. Dr. Asari joined Old Dominion University in the Fall of 2000.
