Our field of research is computer vision, the area of artificial intelligence seeking automated understanding of visual information, and our main domain of application is quantitative analysis of biomedical data. We aim at leveraging recent progress in computer vision and machine learning to contribute to the solution of high-impact and large-scale biological and medical problems of the real world. Our ongoing projects include: automated analysis of facial expressions, video understanding, and early diagnosis of brain and lung cancer.
