"I shall ask for brains instead of a heart; for a fool would not know what to do with a heart if he had one."
"I shall take the heart," returned the Tin Woodman; "for brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world." -- The Wizard of Oz

Wai-Man Pang (Raymond) recently finished his Ph.D study related to Computer Graphics, Vision, Imaging and Game related technologies in summer 2008 under the supervision of Dr. Heng Pheng Ann and Dr. Wong Tien Tsin.

He is currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at CUHK. He received his B.Sc. degree and M.Phil. degree in the same university in 2000 and 2002. Then, he worked for local I.T. companies as software engineer in 2002 to 2005. From 2005 to 2008, he pursued his Ph.D study in the CSE Department of CUHK and restarts his research journey.

His current research interests mainly on texture rich bitonal image generation, computational manga, texture synthesis, image-based relighting and rendering, hardware accelerated algorithm and medical related applications. During his Ph.D study, he had presented and published many of his works on significant journal, books and conference in the related area, including ACM SIGGRAPH, ACM SIGGRAPH ASIA, IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, IEEE Computer Graphics & Applications, ShaderX5 : Advanced Rendering Techniques, and MICCAI.
