Dr. Wen-Hsiao Peng (M'09-SM’13-F'25) received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees from National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (formerly NCTU), Hsinchu, Taiwan, in 1997, 1999, and 2005, respectively, all in electronics engineering.

Dr. Peng is currently a Professor in the Department of Computer Science, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU), Taiwan and a part-time Professor in the Institute of Information Processing, Leibniz University Hannover, Germany. From 2000 to 2001, he was with the Intel Microprocessor Research Laboratory, Santa Clara, CA, USA, where he contributed to the development of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG)-4 fine granularity scalability and demonstrated its application in 3-D peer-to-peer video conferencing. Since 2003, he has actively participated in the ISO/IEC MPEG digital video coding standardization process and contributed to the development of H.264/AVC Scalable Amendment, H.265/HEVC, H.265/HEVC Screen Content Coding Extensions (SCC), H.266/VVC, and JPEG AI. His research group at NYCU is one of the few university teams around the world that participated in the Call-for-Proposals on H.265/HEVC and its SCC extensions. He hold 15+ US/TW patents related to these standards. He is affiliated with MediaTek and ITRI in the ISO/IEC & ITU-T standards committee. He was a Visiting Scholar at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center, Yorktown Heights, NY, USA, from 2015 to 2016. He has authored over 140 technical papers in the field of video/image processing and communications and over 60 standards contributions. His research interests include neural network-based image/video coding, ISO/IEC & ITU-T video coding standards, visual signal processing , computer vision, etc.

Dr. Peng is the Past Chair of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS) Visual Signal Processing and Communications (VSPC) Technical Committee. He has served as a voting member of the IEEE CASS Standard Activities Subdivision (SASD) and as the CASS Representative to the IEEE Signal Processing Society. His editorial service includes Editor‑in‑Chief, AEiC for Digital Communications, Lead Guest Editor, and SEB Member for the IEEE Journal on Emerging and Selected Topics in Circuits and Systems (JETCAS); Senior Area Editor, Associate Editor and Special Session Organizer for IEEE TCSVT; Guest Editor for IEEE TCAS-II; and Associate Editor for IEEE TPAMI. He was a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE CASS (2022-2023) and APSIPA (2017-2018). He is an IEEE Fellow.
