Francesca Odone

My interests are in the fields of Computer Vision and Statistical Learning. In particular my research activity includes the study of

• theory and algorithms for classification, feature selection and data analysis;
• methods for object and event detection and recognition in images and image sequences;
• motion analysis methods for video-surveillance and behavior understanding.

Besides theory, algorithms and methods, I also enjoy playing with real world applications. I am scientific coordinator of technology transfer and applied research contracts and projects where we study, design and develop

• computer vision tools for the visually impaired
• face biometry prototypes for access control
• 3D computer vision and machine learning methods for Entry Descent and Landing (EDL) on planetary surfaces
• image processing for postal security.

I lead the computer vision area of the slipguru research group. An overview of our research may be found here .
