Background
- Research interests include computer vision, computer graphics, machine learning, medical imaging, animation and simulation, image-based rendering, and physics-based modeling.
- Focuses on explaining visual data through appropriate physical and statistical models for applications in computer vision, computer graphics, and medical image analysis.
- Central research theme is modeling the interaction between 3D shape and illumination for shape and motion estimation, object recognition, and augmented reality.
- Interested in statistical modeling of non-rigid 3D shape deformation and accurate matching of 3D data.
- Extensive work on human modeling, especially faces, including facial appearance under variable illumination and expression modeling for biometrics and human-computer interaction.
- Collaborates with psychologists using multimodal data (e.g., eye-tracking, fMRI) to study human behavior and applies machine learning to brain image analysis based on neuropsychological findings.
- Research funded by NSF, NIH, DoE, DoJ, FRA, New York State, and Adobe Corp.
