Wang-Q Lim

W.-Q. Lim received the A.B. and Ph.D. degrees in mathematics from Washington University, St. Louis, USA, in 2003 and 2006, respectively. Before joining the Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute (HHI), he held postdoctoral positions at Lehigh University from 2006 to 2008, University of Osnabrück from 2009 to 2011, and TU Berlin from 2011 to 2015. He is one of the main contributors of shearlets, a multiscale framework that allows to efficiently encode anisotropic features in multivariate problem classes. Based on this approach, he has been working on various applications, including image denoising, interpolation, inpainting, separation, and medical imaging. He is currently a Research Scientist with the Image and Video Coding Group, Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute. His research interests include mainly in applied harmonic analysis, image/video processing, compressed sensing, approximation theory, and numerical analysis.
