Current Labs & Groups
		Component Analysis The Component Analysis Lab is devoted to research new learning techniques to encode and decompose a given signal into relevant components for classification, clustering, modeling and visualization.
		Face Group Robust detection, recognition, and tracking of human faces with automated analysis of expressions
		Human Identification at a Distance (HumanID) We are developing and evaluating human identification technologies as part of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) sponsored program in Human Identification at a Distance (HumanID).
		Human Sensing The goal of the Human Sensing Lab is to develop new machine learning algorithms to model and understand human behavior from sensory data.
