Biography

Jingdong Wang is Chief Scientist for computer vision with Baidu. Before joining Baidu, he was a Senior Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research Asia from September 2007 to August 2021. His areas of interest include computer vision, deep learning, multimedia search and large models. His representative works include: high-resolution network (HRNet) for generic visual recognition, transformer query-based object-contextual representations (OCRNet) for semantic segmentation, discriminative regional feature integration (DRFI) for saliency detection - the first supervised saliency detection approach, neighborhood graph search (NGS, SPTAG) for vector search - the first practical and successful neighbor graph-based vector search algorithm and applied to hundreds of billions of vectors.

He served as a Program Chair for ICCV 2025.He has been serving/served as an Associate Editor of IEEE TPAMI, IJCV, ACM TOMM, IEEE TMM, and IEEE TCSVT, and an (senior) area chair of leading conferences in vision, multimedia, and AI, such as CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ACM MM, ICLR, ICML, IJCAI, and AAAI. He was elected as an ACM Distinguished Member, a Fellow of IAPR, a Fellow of IEEE, and a Fellow of CAE, for his contributions to visual content understanding and retrieval.
