Thomas Wiegand (born 6 May 1970 in Wismar) is a German electrical engineer who substantially contributed to the creation of the H.264/AVC, H.265/HEVC, and H.266/VVC video coding standards. For H.264/AVC, Wiegand was one of the chairmen of the Joint Video Team (JVT) standardization committee that created the standard and was the chief editor of the standard itself. He was also a very active technical contributor to the H.264/AVC, H.265/HEVC, and H.266/VVC video coding standards. Wiegand also holds a chairmanship position in the ITU-T VCEG of ITU-T Study Group 16 and previously in ISO/IEC MPEG standardization organizations. In July 2006, the video coding work of the ITU-T jointly led by Gary J. Sullivan and Wiegand for the preceding six years was voted as the most influential area of the sta

dbo:abstract
  • Thomas Wiegand (* 6. Mai 1970 in Wismar) ist ein deutscher Elektrotechniker. Er ist einer der beiden Institutsleiter des Fraunhofer Heinrich-Hertz-Instituts HHI und Professor für Bildkommunikation sowie Leiter des Fachgebiets Medientechnik an der Technischen Universität Berlin. Er war an der Entwicklung der Videocodierstandards H.264/MPEG-AVC, H.265/MPEG-HEVC und H.266/MPEG-VVC beteiligt. Wiegand war maßgeblich an der Entwicklung der Videocodierstandards H.264/MPEG-AVC, H.265/MPEG-HEVC und H.266/MPEG-VVC beteiligt. Er war einer der Leiter der Standardisierungsgremien ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group und ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) Video und hat als Editor die 280 Seiten umfassende H.264/MPEG-AVC-Spezifikation verfasst. Im Juli 2006 wurde die von Gary J. Sullivan und Wiegand in den vorangegangenen sechs Jahren gemeinsam geleitete Videocodierungsarbeit der ITU-T zum einflussreichsten Bereich der Normungsarbeit von CCITT und ITU-T in ihrer 50-jährigen Geschichte erklärt. Seit 2018 ist Wiegand Vorsitzender der ITU/WHO Focus Group on Artificial Intelligence for Health (FG-AI4H). Thomson Reuters listet Wiegand seit 2014 als einen der meistzitierten Forschenden auf seinem Gebiet in der Liste "The World's Most Influential Scientific Minds" auf. (de)
