Professor Jiming Liu is a Chair Professor in Computer Science (since 2010) and the Associate Provost at Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU), where he and his team conduct funded research on AI and Machine Learning, Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems, Autonomy-Oriented Computing, Data-Driven Complex Systems Science, as well as Computational Population Health, while at the same time engaging in real-world challenges/initiatives on AI-Enabled Population Health.

Professor Liu is a Fellow of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers), since 2011, for his research contributions to Multi-Agent Autonomy-Oriented Computing (AOC) and Web Intelligence (WI). He was a recipient of the Chinese Association for Artificial Intelligence (CAAI) WU Wen-Jun Artificial Intelligence Science and Technology Award in 2017, and the HKBU President's Award for Outstanding Performance in Scholarly Work in 2007. Professor Liu has delivered Invited Talks at numerous international conferences, including the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI ’03).

Professor Liu earned his PhD and Master of Engineering degrees in Electrical Engineering from McGill University (with Centre for Intelligent Machines), Canada. He joined HKBU in late 1993, and served as the Head of the Department of Computer Science (2003-2011), the Associate Dean of Science (Research) (2011-2017), the Dean of the Faculty of Science (act.2015-2017; 2021-2023), and the Associate Vice-President (Research; Research Development) (2017-2019; 2022-2026). He was the Director and Tenured Professor of the School of Computer Science at the University of Windsor, Canada, in 2006-2007, and was a Visiting Scholar in Stanford AI Lab (SAIL), Department of Computer Science, Stanford University, USA, in 1999 (Sabbatical).
