Self-introduction

Issei Fujishiro was born in Tokyo in 1960. He received his Master of Engineering from University of Tsukuba in 1985 and his Doctor of Science from the University of Tokyo in 1988. Before joining Keio University in 2009, he had held a faculty position at the University of Tokyo, University of Tsukuba, Ochanomizu University, and Tohoku University. In 2015, he was elected as an honorary alumnus of Keio University. He had been a visiting professor of computer science at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, USA during 1994―1995 and has been an adjunct professor of computer science at Hangzhou Dianzi University, China since 2020. Prof. Fujishiro has more than 40 years’ carrier in the field of visual computing, with a particular focus on modeling paradigms and shape representations, applied visualization design and lifecycle management, and smart multi-modal ambient media underpinned by perceptive/cognitive psychology. He authored 371 original papers and 102 survey articles and holds 3 patents. He also edited and/or authored 41 books, including standard Japanese textbooks on computer graphics, entitled Computer Graphics (new edition, CG-ARTS, 2015) and Visual Information Processing (new edition, CG-ARTS, 2017). He received 68 awards, including the Most Cited Paper Award for the Journal Graphical Models 2004―2006 from Elsevier Science, the 16th CG Japan Award from the Society for Art and Science (SAS), and the 6th  Hagura Prize from the State of the Art Technologies Expression Association. He has served as an associate editor for several international journals, including IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (1999―2003, 2018―2022), Elsevier Computers and Graphics (2003―2013), Elsevier Journal of Visual Informatics (2016―), Elsevier Journal of Computers & Education: X Reality (2022―), and Springer The Visual Computer (2023―). He guest-edited 13 special issues of international/domestic journals, including IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications (Vol. 35, No. 6, 2015; Vol. 28, No. 5, 2008). He has served on the steering committee for IEEE SciVis and IEEE PacificVis. He chaired 39 international conferences, including IEEE PacificVis 2008/2014/2024 (Kyoto/Yokohama/Tokyo), Cyberworlds 2013/2019 (Yokohama/Kyoto), ACM VRACAI 2014/2015 (Shenzhen/Kobe), TopoInVis 2017 (Tokyo), CG International 2017 (Yokohama), PacificVAST 2018 (Kobe), and IEEE VIS 2018/2019 (SciVis) (Berlin/Vancouver). He has acted as 208 executive/organizing/program committees for international conferences. He was the President of the Visualization Society of Japan (2021―2022), the President of Institute of Image Electronics Engineers of Japan (IIEEJ, 2016―2017), and a Vice President for SAS (2005―2007). Prof. Fujishiro is presently appointed as an associate member of Science Council of Japan, a Board Director for International Information Science Foundation, and a Trustee for SAS and CG-ARTS. He is a fellow of the Japan Federation of Engineering Societies, a fellow and a representative member of Information Processing Society of Japan, an honorary member and a fellow of IIEEJ, a senior member of IEEE (Computer Society/VGTC) and ACM (SIGGRAPH), and a member of Eurographics, CGS, IEICE, VRSJ, ITE, JACM, and SATEA. He is a 2021 inductee into IEEE Visualization Academy.
