Prof. Guilherme Corrêa

I received the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Coimbra, Portugal (2015), the M.Sc. degree in Computer Science from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil (2010) and the B.Sc. degree in Computer Science from the Federal University of Pelotas, Brazil (2009).

Since 2016, I am a professor with the Technology Development Center (CDTec) at the Federal University of Pelotas (UFPel), Brazil. I am a supervisor in the Graduate Program in Computing (PPGC) and a CNPq Research Productivity Fellow Level 2 (PQ-2). I have more than 15 years of experience in the field of visual signal processing, with my main activities focused on developing low-complexity and energy-efficient video coding solutions. I am the author of more than 150 scientific papers which received more than 1,700 citations, one book and two patent applications.

I am a Senior Member of the IEEE, where I am affiliated with the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS), the IEEE Education Society (EdSoc), and the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS). In IEEE CASS, I serve as an elected member of the Multimedia Systems Applications Technical Committee (MSA-TC) since 2021, and as Chair of the IEEE CASS Rio Grande do Sul Chapter for the 2026-2027 term. I am also a member of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) and the Brazilian Microelectronics Society (SBMicro).

My main research interests and expertise include:

• • Video coding algorithms and standards (H.264/AVC, HEVC, VVC, VP9, AV1, etc.);
    
  • Point cloud and light field coding;
  • Machine learning and deep learning for multimedia applications;
  • Energy-efficient hardware design and computing systems.
