Biography
After finishing my Engineer studies at the ESIEA Paris, I moved to the UK and did an MSc in Computational Intelligence at the University of Plymouth, before moving to Stirling to study with Norbert Krueger and Florentin Woergoetter on the European project ECOVISION.
I graduated my PhD from the University of Goettingen in 2008. From September 2007 to September 2009, I held a half-time Assistant Professor position at the University of Southern Denmark, and a half-time Research Associate position at the University of Edinburgh, collaborating with Prof. Norbert Krueger on the two EU projects DrivSco and PACOPLUS. I moved to the Centre for Vision Speech and Signal Processing (CVSSP) at the University of Surrey in 2009 as a Postdoc, working with Prof. Richard Bowden on autonomous driving and automatic sign language recognition (I was involved with the projects DIPLECS and Dicta-Sign), and was offered a lectureship in 2013.
In 2016, I moved to the Department of Computer Science at the University of Exeter, where my group's research focused on the use of deep neural networks for modelling visual attention and context in visual scenes (EPSRC grant DEVA).
I started as a Reader in the School of Computing at the University of Glasgow in June 2020.
Research interests
My core research interests are cognitive vision and machine learning. More specifically, I am interested in how we make sense of images and videos and use visual input for complex control tasks. I am particularly interested in what human vision can tell us, how vision develops from experience and how attention is deployed to understand complex scenes.
