Chinese mathematician


Zuowei Shen (Chinese: 沈佐伟) is a Chinese mathematician, and Tan Chin Tuan Centennial Professor at the National University of Singapore (NUS). Shen received his BSc in 1982 from Hohai University (China), MSc in 1987 and PhD in 1991 from University of Alberta. He first joined NUS as a lecturer at the Department of Mathematics in 1993; was promoted to professor in 2002 and distinguished professor in 2009. Shen was Head of Department of Mathematics from 2012 to 2014 and was appointed Dean of Science in 2014. [1]

Shen is known for his work on approximation theory, wavelet theory, and image processing. He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) in 2010 (Section: Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computing),[2] and an invited speaker at the 8th International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics (ICIAM) in 2015.[3]
