Peter de With

Peter de With is Full Professor of the Video Coding and Architectures group in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). He is an international expert on video compression and video and image analysis for health, surveillance and multimedia. De With has been active in R&D of algorithms and systems design for about 35 years.

Since 2000, De With leads the Video Coding & Architectures Group (SPS-VCA), which focuses on video/image signal processing, signal transformation, feature analysis and machine learning techniques for the application areas of health, surveillance, and automotive. De With has been involved in multiple EU projects on video analysis, object and behavior recognition for safety and security, and in surveillance projects with the Harbor of Rotterdam, Dutch Defense, Bosch Security Systems, TKH-Security, ViNotion, and more. In the field of health care, De With has jointly founded an image analysis research group with multiple regional and national hospitals for forms of oncology detection analysis, of which esophageal cancer detection research has become of leading international quality. 

De With is a Fellow of the IEEE, has (co-)authored over 400 papers on video coding, analysis, architectures, 3D processing and their realization and has received multiple papers awards (various CE Chester Sall Awards, SPIE paper awards, Elsevier Journal Award). He is a program committee member of the IEEE CES and ICIP and holds some 30 patents.

Image and video analysis has been an accelerating key driver for system innovations through computer vision and machine learning in societal areas like health, surveillance and automotive in the past 20 years.”
