Miller named Fellow of Asia Pacific Artificial Intelligence Association

Professor Eric Miller of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering has been named a Fellow of the Asia Pacific Artificial Intelligence Association (AAIA), the highest level of membership in the organization. According to the association, Miller was selected for his “outstanding achievements in the area of statistical signal and imaging processing.”

Miller's research interests include statistical- and physics-based signal and imaging modeling and processing, tomographic image formation and object characterization, and inverse problems. This work has been carried out in the context of applications including human performance assessment, materials science, airport security, medical imaging, environmental monitoring and remediation, unexploded ordnance remediation, and automatic target detection and classification. Miller earned his PhD in electrical engineering from MIT and joined Tufts in 2007. Currently the Director of the Tufts Institute for Artificial Intelligence, he served as chair of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering from 2012-2021 and as Associate Dean for the School of Engineering from 2009-2012.

The Asia-Pacific Artificial Intelligence Association (AAIA) was incorporated in Hong Kong in 2021. As an academic, non-profit, and non-governmental organization, the AAIA aims to build a broad AI industry, bringing together scientists and entrepreneurs related to AI applications to develop AI industries. The main mission of the Asia-Pacific Artificial Intelligence Association (AAIA) is to strengthen scientists in the field of AI and other fields worldwide to promote the development and application of AI.
