Research Interests

The main goal of my research is to solve Computer Vision problems using standard and Machine Learning-based approaches. In particular, my work exploits temporal redundancy of data because it is a necessary information used by humans to make robust models of everything.

Interests:

Computer Vision Machine Learning
  • Multi-Target Tracking
  • Multi-Group Tracking
  • Social Interaction Discovery
  • Person Re-identification for Multi-Camera
  • Object Modeling in tracking
  • Sequential Monte Carlo Methods
  • Restricted Boltzmann Machines and Deep Networks
  • Non-parametric Bayesian Models
  • Dynamic Bayesian Nets
  • Sequential Control Methods

 

Applications: Automatic Video Surveillance Systems (European project: SAMURAI), Computational Models of Human Attention.

My youtube channels: anonymousTrack and anonymousML
