Background
Postdoctoral researcher in the field of computer vision and machine learning. Research interests include image and multi-modal video recognition, with a specific interest in learning representations through self-supervised, semi-supervised, and occasionally fully-supervised methods, and exploring the transferability of these methods to few-shot and open-set generalization scenarios.
