Biography/Interests
I graduated in May 2013 and defended my thesis "Characterization of Probabilistic Volumetric Models for 3-d Computer Vision" under the guidance of Dr. Joseph Mundy. See abstract and thesis files. During my Ph.D my focus was in the areas of 3d reconstruction, recognition, registration and feature detection. While at Brown, I received a M.S degree in Applied Mathematics, with course-work focused on probability theory. I received my B.S degree with honors in Electrical Engineering from Trinity College, where I was also part of the squash varsity team. I was born and raised in the city of the eternal spring, Medellin, Colombia.
