General Information

I have been an Assistant, an Associate and now a Full Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Stevens Institute of Technology since 2008. Prior to joining Stevens, I earned a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Southern California. Between 2005 and 2008, I held postdoctoral research associate positions in the Department of Computer and Information Science of the University of Pennsylvania, and in the Department of Computer Science of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My research is on geometric computer vision and builds upon machine learning and parallel programming techniques. I am an associate/area editor for the IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (TPAMI) and the Computer Vision and Image Understanding (CVIU) journal. I have also served as area chair of the three top-tier computer vision conferences (CVPR, ICCV and ECCV), program co-chair of the International Conference on 3D Vision (3DV) 2019, and I will serve as program co-chair of the IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV) in 2025.
