Liang-Gee Chen (S'84–M'86–SM'94–F'01) was born in Yun-Lin, Taiwan, in 1956. He received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from National Cheng Kung University, in 1979, 1981, and 1986, respectively.
He was an Instructor (1981–1986) and an Associate Professor (1986–1988) with the Department of Electrical Engineering, National Cheng Kung University. While in the military service during 1987 and 1988, he was an Associate Professor with the Institute of Resource Management, Defense Management College. In 1988, he joined the Department of Electrical Engineering, National Taiwan University (NTU), Taipei. During 1993 to 1994, he was Visiting Consultant of the DSP Research Department, AT&T Bell Labs, Murray Hill, NJ. In 1997, he was a visiting scholar with the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Washington, Seattle. Currently, he is a Professor with NTU. Since 2004, he has also been the Executive Vice President and the General Director of Electronics Research and Service Organization (ERSO) in the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI). His current research interests are DSP architecture design, video processor design, and video coding system.
Dr. Chen is a member of the honor society Phi Tan Phi. He was the General Chairman of the 7th VLSI Design CAD Symposium. He is also the General Chairman of the 1999 IEEE Workshop on Signal Processing Systems: Design and Implementation. He serves as Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology since June 1996 and an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on VLSI Systems since January 1999. He has been an Associate Editor of the Journal of Circuits, Systems, and Signal Processing since 1999 until now. He served as the Guest Editor of The Journal of VLSI Signal Processing Systems for Signal, Image, and Video Technology, November 2001. He is also the Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Analog and Digital Signal Processing. Since 2002, he has also been an Associate Editor of the Proceedings of the IEEE. He received the Best Paper Award from the ROC Computer Society in 1990 and 1994. From 1991 to 1999, he received Long-Term (Acer) Paper Awards annually. In 1992, he received the Best Paper Award of the 1992 Asia-Pacific Conference on Circuits and Systems in VLSI design track. In 1993, he received the Annual Paper Award of Chinese Engineer Society. In 1996, he received the Outstanding Research Award from NSC, and the Dragon Excellence Award for Acer. He was elected as the IEEE Circuits and Systems Distinguished Lecturer from 2001 to 2002.
