Giuseppe PirloGIUSEPPE PIRLO received the degree in computer science (cum laude) from the Department of Computer Science, University of Bari, Italy, in 1986. Since 1986, he was carrying out research in the field of computer science and neuroscience, signal processng, handwriting processing, automatic signature verification, biometrics, pattern recognition and statistical data processing. Since 1991, he was an Assistant Professor with the Department of Computer Science, University of Bari, where he is currently a Full Professor.
He developed several scientific projects and authored over 250 papers on international journals, scientific books and proceedings.
Prof. Pirlo is currently an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Human–Machine Systems. He also serves as a Reviewer for many international journals including the IEEE T-PAMI, the IEEE T-FS, the IEEE T-SMC, the IEEE T-EC, the IEEE T-IP, the IEEE T-IFS, the Pattern Recognition, the IJDAR, and the IPL. He was the general co-chair of the International Workshop on Smart Cities and Smart Enterprises (SCSE2018), of the International Workshop On Artificial Intelligence With Application In Health (WAIAH2017), of the International Workshop on Emerging Aspects in Handwriting Signature Processing, Naples, in 2013, the International Workshop on Image-based Smart City Applications, Genoa, in 2015, and the General Co-Chair of the International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition, Bari, in 2012. He was a reviewer in the scientific committee and program committee of many international conferences in the field of computer science, pattern recognition and signal processing, such as the ICPR, the ICDAR, the ICFHR, the IWFHR, the ICIAP, the VECIMS, and the CISMA.
He is also the editor of several books. He was an Editor of the Special Issue Handwriting Recognition and Other PR Applications of the Pattern Recognition Journal in 2014 and the Special Issue Handwriting Biometrics of the IET Biometrics Journal in 2014. He was the Guest Editor of the Special Issue of the Je-LKS Journal of the e-Learning and Knowledge Society Steps toward the Digital Agenda: Open Data to Open Knowledge in 2014. He is currently the Guest Co-Editor of the Special Issue of the IEEE Transactions on Human–Machine Systems on Drawing and Handwriting Processing for User-Centered Systems. Read More Read Less
