My research interests are in the area of computer vision and machine learning, especially at the intersection of the two. I am particularly interested in using data-driven techniques to learn representations of images (e.g. pixel selection, non-linear pixel combination) that are optimal for classification, clustering, visual tracking, and modeling.
