Research

My research is in the field of content-based image retrieval (CBIR). Specifically, I am interested in applying knowledge gained from an understanding of the human visual system to challenges faced by CBIR systems. The work is also augmenting traditional CBIR with collaborative filtering through a new interface. Please visit my former research group’s site, MLAB, to find out more about past research activities.

For more information on my current research please view my Curriculum Vitae (CV) and research interests.

Please note that in most cases the publications posted here are the submitted manuscripts that were accepted for publication, not the final typeset versions. Refer to the citations to find the final, published papers. I maintain an article that may help. Also, please be aware of the copyright notice at the bottom of this page.
