I am a Researcher in the Computer Vision Group at Microsoft Research Cambridge/UK. My interests are in the areas:

• (Markov) Random Field Models for Computer Vision and their discrete Optimization
• Vision for Graphics: Image and Video Editing, Manipulation, Segmentation, Synthesis, ...
• and also: Object Recognition, Stereo, 3D reconstruction (mainly during PhD)
