Research

My
research is in the area of biomedical image computing. In
particular, my interest is in the modeling, quantification, segmentation,
fusion, interpretation and visualization of multimodal multidimensional
medical image data. This is inherently a multi-disciplinary field,
combining aspects of signal and image processing, image analysis, computer
vision, computational geometry, applied mathematics, geometrical and
statistical modeling, computer graphics, virtual and enhanced reality, and
human-computer interaction.
