Preference will be given to students who want to pursue a PhD degree in Computer Vision. Active research areas within CVL include object recognition, visual motion analysis, face detection/recognition, biometrics, tracking and pose estimation of human body/head/hand/eye-gaze, surveillance and activity recognition. CVL is currently funded by NSF, NASA, ONR, Ford Motor Company, and Motorola. We are also collaborating with several government and industrial laboratories.
