i am a professor in the school of engineering. in the electrical and computer engineering program. i hold a secondary appointment in the computer science. all my degrees are in electrical engineering.
i teach, essentially, signal processing type courses. i use a lot of wavelets. we apply them to many things such as multiscale modeling, biomedical signal analysis, spectral estimation and removing signal from noise.
some applied problems we are currently working on include tracking algorithms to operate on 2D video sequences; specifcally for counting pedestrians, bicyclists and cars at intersections.
also feature detection and classification for autonomous Rover robot navigation and exploration.
we are specially interested in exploiting compressed sensing for robustness to occlusion.
the hardware part is done in the dsp labs where we implement signal processing and control algorithms on 320C6x dsps.
