• I am currently working on face and head-pose tracking, accurate face landmark localization, and attention sensing.

• My MSc work was on generating different image processing and machine learning algorithms for the analysis of biomedical, and particularly Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images. The shape and thickness of the retinal layers are changed in different pathological conditions. Part of my research was on developing an efficient image segmentation algorithm for delineating the location of different retinal layers to help ophthalmologists in the diagnosis of different ocular diseases. 

Additionally, my research explored the classification of OCT images based on different ocular diseases using deep neural networks and different machine learning algorithms. This would be pretty handy, especially in the early stages of different diseases. My goal is to implement my knowledge and background in engineering and computer science into clinical applications in order to help patients and reduce the risk of vision loss.

• Before my graduate studies, I worked on designing and developing a computer vision based approach for the 3D bioprinting of skin cells on chronic wounds.
