I am a Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of York. I completed a BA in Physics from St. John's College, Oxford in 1992 and a PhD in computer vision from the University of York in 1996. I have published more than 150 papers in international journals and conferences. According to Google Scholar, my work has been cited more than 2000 times and I have an h-index of 20.

I was a member of the British Physics Olympiad team in 1988, won the K. M. Stott prize for best thesis from the University of York in 1995 and was a member of the winning team in the 1996 BCS programming competition. I was also an EPSRC advanced research fellow from 1998-2003. I am a fellow of the IAPR.

Research

 My research mainly lies in the area of statistical pattern recognition and its application to computer vision problems. I am willing to supervise research students in these areas. More details can be found on the research page.

 

Publications/CV

 My full CV is available here and includes a relatively up-to-date list of publications

You can see nearly all of my publications on my entry in DBLP.
