					| Mobile and Immersive Experiences Laboratory |  Recent Research  My current research involves video processing algorithms to 
                         improve the presentation and quality of video. This work involves using signal processing 
                         techniques to reduce video cross-talk, improving web-cam image quality
                         for stationary backgrounds, and relighting techniques using IR light.
                          In the past, I developed 
		          image processing and image analysis
		          techniques to improve the experience of
		          browsing image collections. I have also
		          worked on algorithms for image enhancement,
		          including compression artifact reduction,
		          approximate reconstruction of the digital
		          information from a printed page, and color
		          adjustment in YCC spaces. My work with audio
		          has included developing technologies for
		          exploring music collections and algorithms
		          for enhancing audio signals. information
		          from a printed page, and color adjustment in
		          YCC spaces.

Mobile and Immersive Experiences Lab. His current research
involves video processing algorithms to improve the presentation and
quality of video. He currently
serves as associate editor for IEEE Transactions on Image Processing. In
the past he developed image processing algorithms applied to display
browsing and printing of image collections, such as algorithms to
reduce compression artifacts, to resize images while preserving image
quality information, and to combine multimedia with continuous GPS
location and time information. Prior to HP, at Electronics for Imaging
(1994-2000), he worked on color technologies for high quality
printers, in engineering and management positions, ending as Director
of Imaging Technologies. At Stanford and NASA Ames (1987-1994), he
worked on feature extraction and motion analysis algorithms applied to
remote sensing applications, as well as on algorithms for color
simulation of flat panel displays. He received the MS and PhD in EECS from
Stanford University and a BS in Engineering Physics from UC Berkeley
