Research Interests

My work is primarily in the area of Computer Vision and applied Machine Learning. I have broad-ranging research interests and like to work on inter-disciplinary problems involving multi-modal multimedia data (e.g. images,videos, text, audio/speech, eye-tracking data) and disciplines (e.g. Graphics, Robotics, Human-Computer Interaction).
