Ko Nishino, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor
Department of Computer Science
College of Engineering
Drexel University
I am an assistant professor of Computer Science at Drexel University. Prior to
joining Drexel in fall 2005, I was a postdoctoral research scientist at Columbia University. I
received
all my degrees from The University
of Tokyo: both BE and ME in Information and Communication
Engineering (CE) in 1997 and 1999, respectively, and PhD in Information Science (CS)
in 2002.
My research interests primarily lie in computer vision. In particular,
I strive to develop novel models and computational algorithms to
better extract, understand, and regenerate visual information from
photographs and videos. To this end, my main focus centers on
leveraging intrinsic structures of visual data -- the latent
structures that can be found in the geometry, radiometry, and motion
of real-world scenes that are not necessarily apparent to our naked
eyes.
