Massive satellite images are available every day. The image processing task is critical to interpret the data for various Earth observation applications, including weather and fire monitoring, as well as target detection for defence and security. Rather than a colour image, Xiuping's research into image processing lies in hyperspectral imagery, which means the images are not just in three RGB bands– red, green, blue – it covers infrared wavelengths and hundreds of bands. Thus, hyperspectral imagery could provide more information than what our eyes can see. Now imagine a picture ofyour PhD study? Xiuping will share her experience during her research journey, including the importance of self-knowledge, e.g. your own needs, habits, strengths and weaknesses. The more you know about yourself, the better you are at adapting to the research circumstance and making them work for you.

Biography:
Associate Professor Xiuping Jia is a newly elected IEEE Fellow as an international leader in the field of satellite remote sensing. Xiuping Jia received the B.Eng. degree from the Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Beijing, China, in 1982 and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from The University of New South Wales, Australia, in 1996. Since 1988, she has been with the School of Engineering and Information Technology, The University of New South Wales, Canberra, where she is currently an Associate Professor. Dr. Jia's research areas are image processing, data analysis and remote sensing applications. The projects she has been involved in and supervised range from image registration, data compression, feature reduction and feature learning, to spectral-spatial based classification. Subpixel mapping has been addressed in recent years via spectral unmixing techniques and super resolution reconstruction approaches. She is the author or coauthorof over 200 publications on remote sensing image analysis, including journal papers, book chapters, and peer reviewed conference proceedings. Dr. Jia is the coauthor of the remote sensing textbook entitled Remote Sensing Digital Image Analysis.
This is the second episode of a new series of seminars organised by IEEE ACT WIE Affinity Group. In each episode, a local academics or researcher is invited to share their own career stories. We believe their stories will inspire, motivate, and help you break barriers, set and achieve goals. We hope our IEEE ACT members, especially student members, could join us and have a real-life discussion for thought.
