Research Objectives
The laboratory is exploring simultaneously computer and biological vision. We believe that a better knowledge of the mechanisms of human and animal visual perception can have a significant impact on algorithm design, performance evaluation and interfacing of computer vision systems with humans.
At a more general level, biological visual perception, in particular in humans and monkeys is not well understood not to mention modelled. Pushing the state of the art of this understanding is a great scientific and philosophical challenge that shapes the general framework of our research.
