Carlo Tomasi

Iris Einheuser Distinguished Professor

Tomasi's research is at the intersection of computer vision, machine learning, and applied mathematics. Tomasi's current projects include image motion analysis (funded by NSF), satellite image interpretation (funded by IARPA), computer-assisted diagnosis, and object recognition (funded by Amazon). He is an ACM Fellow and has won the IEEE Computer Society Helmholtz Prize twice.
