His research has centered on the compression and processing of still and
moving images, and in multidimensional digital signal processing theory.
His current research is focused on stereoscopic and multiview imaging,
image sampling theory, image-based virtual environments and color signal processing. The research has
been carried out in collaboration with such organizations as the
Communications Research Centre, the National Research Council, the RCMP,
and the Learning Objects Repositories Network (LORNET).
Dubois is corecipient of the 1988 Journal

He is a member of the Society for Information Display (SID) and the Society
for Imaging Science and Technology (IS&T). He is a
member of the editorial board of the EURASIP journal Signal Processing:
Image Communication and
was an associate editor of the IEEE Transactions on Image Processing
(1994-1998). He was technical program co-chair for the IEEE 2000
