The ACM Student Research Competition is an internationally recognized venue enabling undergraduate and graduate students to experience the research world, share research results and exchange ideas, rub shoulders with academic and industry luminaries, understand the practical applications of their research and gain recognition.

Jingdong Wang is Chief Architect for Computer Vision at Baidu, a Chinese multinational technology company. His areas of interest include neural architecture design, human pose estimation, semantic segmentation, image classification, object detection, large-scale indexing, and salient object detection. Wang has served as an Associate Editor for journals such as IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, and has been an area chair of vision, multimedia, and AI conferences. He is an ACM Distinguished Member and a Fellow of the International Association for Pattern Recognition.

Nicholas Higham is a Royal Society Research Professor and Richardson Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Manchester. His books include Handbook of Writing for the Mathematical Sciences, MATLAB Guide, and The Princeton Companion to Applied Mathematics, of which he is the editor. He was President of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics from 2017 to 2018 and is Editor-in-Chief of the SIAM book series “Fundamentals of Algorithms.” Higham has received several prizes in mathematics and is a Fellow of ACM, SIAM and the Royal Society.

ACM offers lifelong learning resources including online books from O'Reilly, online courses from Skillsoft, TechTalks on the hottest topics in computing and IT, and more.

Encourage your colleagues to join ACM, share the benefits of ACM and receive free gifts for participating. Your support of ACM is critical to our continuing efforts to advance computing as a science and a profession. 

Do you have questions about your member benefits, how to update your contact information, how to renew your membership, or claim missing issues? If so, visit ACM’s Customer Service FAQs for answers to these questions and more.

Learn more about ACM’s commitment to ethical standards: the ACM Code of Ethics, Software Engineering Code of Ethics and Professional Practice, and Committee on Professional Ethics (COPE), which is guiding these and other intiatives.

You can use your technical skills for social good and offer volunteer support on software development projects to organizations who could not otherwise afford it. SocialCoder connects volunteer programmers/software developers with registered charities and helps match them to suitable projects based on their skills, experience, and the causes they care about. Learn more about ACM’s new partnership with SocialCoder, and how you can get involved.

ACM has launched a local events initiative in several major US cities to help computer professionals like you build personal networks of smart technical people nearby. You can share work experiences and insight, discuss new research ideas and provide guidance in finding a job or launching a new venture.
