Pedro Felipe Felzenszwalb is an American computer scientist and professor of the School of Engineering and Department of Computer Science at Brown University.

Career[]

Felzenszwalb studied computer science at Cornell University, receiving his B.S. in 1999.[1] There, he began researching object recognition with Daniel P. Huttenlocher.[2] He earned his M.S. and Ph.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2001 and 2003, respectively.[1] He became a faculty at the University of Chicago in 2004, and was made an associate professor in 2008.[3] In 2010, he was awarded the Longuet-Higgins Prize for his work in the field of computer vision.[1]

Felzenszwalb was appointed an associate professor for Brown University's School of Engineering and Department of Computer Science in 2011.[3] In 2013, he was awarded the Grace Murray Hopper Award by the Association for Computing Machinery for his contributions to the problem of object recognition in pictures and video.[2][4] In 2014, he was awarded the Edward J. McCluskey Technical Achievement Award by the IEEE for his work with object recognition with deformable models.[5]

In 2018, Felzenszwalb received the Longuet-Higgins prize a second time for fundamental contributions to computer vision. In particular, this prize recognized his work with discriminately trained, multiscale, deformable part models. The prize was first awarded in 2005, and Felzenszwalb is among a select group of repeat winners.[6]
