Prof. Massimo TistarelliMassimo Tistarelli was born on November 11, 1962 in Genoa, Italy. He received a degree in Electronic Engineering from the University of Genoa, Italy in 1987 and the Phd in Computer Science and Robotics in 1991 from the same university. Since 1986 he has been involved as project coordinator and task manager in several projects on computer vision and image analysis funded by the European Community. During 1986, 1991 and 1996 he has been visiting the Department of Computer Science, Trinity College, Dublin Ireland, developing methodologies aimed at the investigation of low-level visual processes. In 1989 he was a visiting scientist at Thinking Machines Co. and MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts, developing parallel algorithms for dynamic image processing on the Connection Machine system. Since 1994 he has been the director of the Computer Vision Laboratory at the Department of Communication, Computer and Systems Science of the University of Genoa, leading several national and European projects on computer vision applications and image-based biometrics. His main research interests cover biological and artificial vision (particularly in the area of recognition and dynamic scene analysis), biometrics, robotic navigation and visuo-motor coordination. He is author of more than 70 papers in scientific conferences andinternational journals. In 2000 he was the chairman for the International workshop on "Advances in Facial Image Analysis and Recognition Technology" and in 2002 for the International workshop on “Biometric Authentication”. He was associate editor for the journal Image and Vision Computing. He is the director for the International Summer School for Advanced Studies in Biometrics held in Alghero, Italy, in 2003, 2005 and 2006. He is member of the program committee in severeal international conferences on computer vision and image analysis. Massimo Tistarelli is currently Full Professor in Computer Science at the Department of Architecture and Planning at the University of Sassari, Italy. -- |
