My research interests include computer vision, pattern recognition, machine learning, biomedical imaging, and robotics. My current research focuses on theoretical understanding of the effectiveness of deep networks, and self-learning for robots.
I also have an interest in computer graphics and participate in the computer graphics group here at the University of Otago.
My background is in Computer Science and I completed my undergraduate studies and PhD at James Cook University of North Queensland in Australia. My PhD was entitled "Learning to Recognise 3D Objects from 2D Intensity Images", which I completed in February 1996. I then held a temporary position as a lecturer at James Cook University, before taking up a position in February 1997 as a lecturer with the Computer Science Department here at Otago University.
