中国大陆新增6位IEEE院士(091208) 闵应骅 我在“翻译真不易(090622)”一文中已经说过,我不赞成把IEEE Fellow说成IEEE会士。因为会士是一个天主教的名词。把它说成IEEE院士,又可能有所冒犯。不过,叫“院士”也没什么了不起的。 今年经过IEEE各学会推荐,IEEE院士委员会选举通过,2010年属于在中国大陆工作的中国大陆人将新增6名IEEE院士。不过,大多是外资公司的。真正算大陆单位的有浙大一个、清华一个、中科院一个,共3名。对这6位表示祝贺。要是在国外或港澳台,可能是要登报的。他们的名单如下。 Baining Guo Microsoft Research Asia Haidian District, Beijing, China for contributions to surface modeling and rendering in computer graphics
Xiangning He Zhejiang University Hangzhou, Zhejing, China for leadership in establishing a power electronics research institute in China
Yong Rui Microsoft China Research and Development Beijing, China for contributions to image and video analysis, indexing and retrieval
Jie Tian Chinese Academy of Sciences Beijing, China for contributions to medical image processing, pattern recognition, and molecular imaging
Boming Zhang Tsinghua University Beijing, China for contributions to algorithm development for energy management systems in power system control centers
