Bogdan Smolka received the Diploma degree in physics from the Silesian University, Katowice, Poland, in 1986 and the Ph.D. degree in automatic control from the Department of Automatic Control, Silesian University of Technology, Gliwice, Poland, in 1998. From 1986 to 1989 he was a Teaching Assistant at the Department of Biophysics, Silesian Medical University, Katowice. From 1992 to 1994, he was a Teaching Assistant at the Technical University of Gesslingen, Germany. Since 1994, he has been with the Silesian University of Technology. In 1998, he was appointed as an Associate Professor at the Department of Automatic Control. Since 1999, he has also been an Associate Researcher with the Multimedia Laboratory, University of Toronto, Canada. In 2007 Bogdan Smolka was promoted to Professor of Silesian University of Technology. He has published over 200 papers in refereed journals and conference proceedings on digital signal and image processing. His current research interests include low-level color image processing, human–computer interaction and visual aspects of image quality.
Henryk Palus received the M.Sc. degree in industrial electronics from the Moscow Power Engineering Institute (MEI, Russia) in 1981 and Ph.D. and D.Sc. (habilitation) degrees in Automatic Control and Robotics from Silesian University of Technology in Gliwice, Poland in 1990 and 2007 respectively, where he was promoted to professor in 2009. He was awarded the DAAD Scholarship (University of Magdeburg, Technical College Ulm, Germany, 1992) and British Council Scholarship (University of Reading, UK, 1995). In the period 2002-2010 he co-organized International Conferences on Computer Vision and Graphics (ICCVG) and edited proceedings. He is a member of Advisory Board and reviewer of “Machine Graphics and Vision”, charter-member of the Polish Association of Image Processing (TPO, IAPR member) and member of the Commission of Metrology of Polish Academy of Sciences, Katowice Branch. He is also a member of scientific committees of several conferences in Poland and abroad. He is an author or coauthor of more than 80 papers in international and Polish journals and conference proceedings. His current research interest is focused on different problems of colour image acquisition, representation and colour image processing.
