He served as a guest editor for a couple of special issues in International journals, such as the International Journal of Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence (IJPRAI). He was selected to give conference tutorials at the European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV 2002) and the International Conference on Acoustics Speech and Signal Processing (IEEE ICASSP) in 2003. He organized several special sessions for conferences; including a special session for the IEEE International Conference in Image Processing (IEEE ICIP) in Singapore in 2004. He was on the program committee of many conferences e.g. 3D Digital Imaging and Modeling (3DIM) and the International Conference on Computer Vision. He also contributed in the organisation of many local and international conferences. His areas of interest include control theory, robotics, obstacle avoidance, object recognition, artificial neural networks, signal/image processing and computer vision (particularly 3D).
