Quantitative Imaging Laboratory

Vision sciences has been instrumental in advancing technology leading to variety of applications such as robotics, machine vision for manufacturing, homeland security, life sciences, and biometrics. With the increasing availability of computing resources and advances in sensor technologies, scientific challenges and application demands for vision sciences are on the rise. The need for research is then crucial.

Mission

Current efforts of the Quantitative Imaging Laboratory are in basic and applied research in image processing, computer vision, imaging instrumentation, and pattern recognition. The mission of this group has been to develop quantitative methods and systems for image and scene analysis that are capable of making human-like decisions.

Current Research Efforts

Multidimensional Image and Data Analysis (MINDS)

Visual Analysis in Distributed Camera Systems (VADICS)

Adaptive Intelligence for Robust Image Analysis (AIRIAL)
