Biography: 
Luis Gomez received Ph.D. in Telecommunication Engineering in 1992 (University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, SPAIN, www.ulpgc.es) where he is an Associate Professor since 1994 at the Department of Electronic Engineering and Automatic (DIEA, www.diea.ulpgc.es), lecturing on Advanced Electronic Instrumentation (Master Degree) and Ph.D courses (Optimization Methods for Engineering). His current research interests includes image processing (computer vision, image enhancement, camera calibration, image classification, machine learning), remote sensing for SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) and PolSAR (Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar) and image processing for medical applications (image segmentation and filtering). He has many publications on top JCR journals (Philosophical Transactions, Journal of Mathematical and Image Vision, Pattern Recognition, Pattern Recognition Letters, IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, IEEE- Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, Real-time and Image Processing) among others and has more than 60 contributions to international conferences (most of them IEEE Conferences). He is an active reviewer of many JCR journals (including Computer Vision, Entropy, Sensors, Progress in Electromagnetic Research, IEEESensors, International Journal of Automatic Control, Materials, IEEE-Transaction on Image Processing, IEEE-Transaction on Signal Processing, IEEE- Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics: Systems) and has published more than 30 reviews on Mathematical Reviews (American Mathematical Society, AMS). He belongs to several Technical Program Committees and has been researching in several universities (Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina; Universidad Federal de Alagoas, Maceió, Brazil) and has been external evaluator of several thesis (Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina; School of Engineering and Technology, Asian Institute of Technology (Thailand). He is also an evaluator of the Spanish national program of research (Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad). He is currently Associate Editor of the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters and belongs to the Editorial Board of IPOL (Image Processing on Line, www.ipol.im) and to the Editorial Board of Frontiers-Enviromental Informatics. He has been Guest Editor for Pattern Recognition and Pattern Recognition Letters and Editor of LNCS (Lecture Notes on Computer Science) and has also been general chairman of the CIARP (Iberoamerican Conference on Pattern Recognition) celebrated at Buenos Aires (2012). He researches at CTIM (Image Technology Center (www.ctim.es) and is IEEE Senior Member.
