El
focus principal de la meva recerca és entendre les formes.
Faig feina amb reconeixement de biopolímers
i he fet feina en projectes per a reconeixement de color,
anàlisis del moviment
humà,
reconeixement de lletres
i geometria computacional.
The main focus of my research is
understanding shapes. I work in a biopolymer recognition project and I
have
worked on
projects for color recognition, human motion analysis, character
recognition and
computational
geometry.
