Biographical Sketch
I received a BS (1992) and MS (1993) in Computer Engineering, and a
PhD (1996) in Computer Science and Engineering, all from the University
of South Florida. During this time my research focused on range image
processing and 3D model construction for object recognition and mobile
robot navigation. From 1996-1998 I held a post-doctoral position at
the University of California, San Diego, in the Electrical and Computer
Engineering Department. During this time my research focused on retinal
image processing, and sensor network control of mobile robots.
In 1999 I joined
the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of Clemson University,
where I am currently an Associate Professor.
My current research focuses on tracking systems.
Tracking can refer to physical problems, such as locating where things
are in the world, and also signal problems, such as identifying
the relative health of an individual's blood pressure over time.
Image and signal processing, state space modeling, filtering,
and embedded computing form the background of my work.
My group works with many types of sensors, and often builds
embedded systems that prototype novel tracking ideas.
