Info · Research · Publications · Teaching · Resume
I am a PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, USA). My advisor is Dr. Gregory Hager and am co-advised by Dr. Bruno Jedynak. I am a member of the Computational Interaction and Robotics Laboratory (CIRL), and the Laboratory for Computational Sensing and Robotics (LCSR).
Education:
- Ph.D. Candidate Computer Science, Johns Hopkins University, USA, 2009 - current
- M.Sc. Computer Science, Johns Hopkins University, USA, 2007 - 2008
- B.Sc. Cognitive Systems, University of British Columbia, Canada , 2003 - 2007
Research Interest
My research interests are in computer vision and machine learning. Most of my research deals with the development of computational methods for (a) inferring statistical models from images (object appearance and structure) and (b) using these models for recognition and detection tasks in a variety of applications.
My research has been divided in 3 main directions:
- Multispectral Illumination in Retinal Microsurgery
- Active Testing: Playing a 20 Questions Game
- Snake Modeling
