About Me
Qianting MA is currently an Associate Professor of Applied Mathematics at the School of Mathematics and Statistics, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology. She obtained the PhD in Applied Mathematics at Zhejiang University, China, in December, 2017, and worked as a Postdoctoral Scholar for 2 years at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China. She is a member of China Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (CSIAM), member of CSIAM Activity Group on Mathematics and Medicine Interdisciplinary, and a member of Chinese Society of Biomedical Engineering (CSBME) Activity Group on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine. She also served as a reviewer for many journals, including IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, IEEE Transactions on Multimedia, IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology, IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, Computer Vision and Image Understanding and Computers in Biology and Medicine, et al. Her research interests include variational methods and deep learning methods for image processing, inverse problems in imaging, optimization techniques and applications in imaging, as well as nonlinear analysis and scientific computing. Her research has been supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China and The High-Level Innovative and Entrepreneurial Project in Jiangsu Province, China.
