Academic Achievements
- Recipient of the David Marr Prize (with Y. Ma, J. Kosecka and S. Sastry of U.C. Berkeley); Siemens Prize with the Outstanding Paper Award from the IEEE Computer Society (with R. Brockett of Harvard); NSF Career Award; Okawa Foundation Grant. Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (PAMI), Member of the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Computer Vision (IJCV) and Foundations and Trends in Computer Graphics and Vision.
Research Experience
- Joined UCLA in 2000 after being Assistant and then Associate Professor of Electrical and Biomedical Engineering at Washington University, and Research Associate in Applied Sciences at Harvard University. Between 1995 and 1998, he was also Ricercatore in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Udine - Italy.
Education
- Received his Ph.D. in Control and Dynamical Systems from the California Institute of Technology in 1996; D.Ing. degree (highest honors) from the University of Padova-Italy in 1992.
Background
- Areas of interest include shape: representation, modeling, optimal estimation; motion: real-time sensing, tracking, sensor-based control; visual textures: modeling, synthesis, recognition; visual accommodation: observability, shape from defocus, rendering, perception; image analysis and processing: deformation, registration, inpainting, segmentation; systems theory: nonlinear identification, nonlinear filtering, motion control; statistical inference: estimation on manifolds, Monte Carlo filters; computational aesthetics; human-computer-environment interaction ("vision in the loop").
