Ciao! I am a Research Staff Member in the Vision and Multimedia Group under IBM Research AI. Since 2012 I have been at the T. J. Watson Research Lab in New York. Before that, I did my PhD at Columbia University with Professor John Kender . My interests are in Multimedia and Computer Vision, with a focus on sports video analysis and facial attributes estimation. I have publications in several peer-reviewed journals and conferences, including IEEE TMM, CVPR, ACM Multimedia, ICMR, MICCAI, etc. Among other professional activities, I have served as Area Chair for ACM Multimedia in 2016 and 2017, and local organization chair and web chair for ICMR in 2016.
