Hanan Samet
Hanan Samet (* 20th century) is an American computer scientist. He is a professor at the University of Maryland, College Park . He studied electrical engineering with a bachelor's degree from the University of California, Los Angeles and received a master's degree in operations research from Stanford University , where he received his PhD in 1975 with Vinton Cerf (Automatically Proving the Correctness of Translations Involving Optimized Code) . He has been at the University of Maryland since 1975. He is there in the Computer Vision Laboratory and at the Center for Advanced Computer Studies.
He deals with geographic information systems , database structures for image and spatial data, computer vision and computer graphics. His research group developed the geographical information system QUILT (based on hierarchical data structures such as Quadtree , Octree ), the SAND system, which integrates spatial data with other data, the associated SAND browser for spatial databases. In 2011 he received the Paris Kanellakis Prize for Geographic Information Systems (multi-dimensional spatial data infrastructure ) and in 2014 the W. Wallace McDowell Award . He is a Fellow of the IEEE , the Association for Computing Machinery, and the International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR).
