Bio

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Cognitive Sciences and Artificial Intelligence. My research focuses on artificial intelligence for image and video analysis.  In particular, I am interested in segmentation of biomedical images and tracking of multiple agents to automatically extract insightful information and to create computational models.

Prior to joining Tilburg University, I was a Research Scientist at the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) Centre in the BioSystems and Micromechanics (BioSyM) interdisciplinary research group. I received my PhD degree in Field Robotics from the University of Sydney, Australia in 2008. I received a Bachelor of Engineering (Mechatronics) from the University of Sydney in 2003.
