In the past 35 years, my research has focused on variational methods and Partial Differential Equations for Image Analysis with Deformable models and geodesic methods. A large part of my research has been done for image segmentation and shape recognition with applications in biomedical imaging, in collaboration with industry or hospitals (15 PhD supervision, among 25, with applications to biomedical imaging). Current work involves various aspects of Machine Learning.
Main topics:
Geodesic Methods: Image Segmentation, Active Contours Revisited. Applications to Medical Imaging.Deformable Models: Edge-based or Region-based active contours, curve and surface Reconstruction, Image Segmentation and Restoration.Machine Learning: Object segmentation and recognition.
