Our group’s research interests lie at the intersection of the theory and application of machine learning - with a focus on applications in computer vision. With a strong interest in the mathematical fundamentals and a passion for real-world application, our group aims on being at the forefront of the field, by carrying out impactful research in the areas of deep learning, machine learning and computer vision, guided by application contexts derived from real-world use.
Keywords: Deep Learning, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Optimization, Agriculture, Autonomous Navigation
We are also broadly interested in the theoretical understanding of deep learning, and making deep neural networks faster (to train and test), as well as smaller.
Please see our Research pages for more information on our research interests, projects, publications, etc.
