is a Japanese computer scientist and one of the world's foremost researchers in computer vision. He is U.A. and Helen Whitaker Professor at Carnegie Mellon University. He has approximately 300 peer-reviewed academic publications and holds around 20 patents. Honors and achievements In 1997, he was elected to the US National Academy of Engineering for contributions to computer vision and robotics. In 1997, he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences In 1999 he was inducted as a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery. In 2008 Kanade received the Bower Award and Prize for Achievement in Science from The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. A special event called TK60: Celebrating Takeo Kanade's vision was held to commemorate his 60th birthday. This event was attended by prominent computer vision researchers. Elected member of American Association of Artificial Intelligence, Robotics Society of Japan, and Institute of Electronics and Communication Engineers of Japan Marr Prize, 1990 for the paper Shape from Interreflections which he co-authored with Shree K.
