Trac D. Tran received the B.S. and M.S. degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, in 1993 and 1994, respectively, and the PhD degree from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, in 1998, all in Electrical Engineering. In July 1998, Tran joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, where he currently holds the rank of Professor. His research interests are in the field of digital signal processing, particularly in sparse representation, sparse recovery, sampling, multi-rate systems, filter banks, transforms, wavelets, and their applications in signal analysis, compression, processing, and communications. His pioneering research on integer-coefficient transforms and pre-/post-filtering operators has been adopted as critical components of Mozilla Daala, Microsoft Windows Media Video 9, and JPEG-XR (the latest international still-image compression standard ISO/IEC 29199-2).
Tran was named Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 2014 [1] for contributions to multirate and sparse signal processing.
