Work Experience
|
1998 -
present
|
University of Surrey,
Guildford, UK
Research Fellow
Investigated a number of problems in image processing: statistical
characteristics of fractal surfaces, photometric stereo, pattern
recognition, performance evaluation. The work included error
propagation, linear algebra, statistical analysis, stochastic
processes, Monte Carlo simulations. Designed and implemented a number
of algorithms, evaluated their performance. In several projects worked
as a member of a team, however did most of the research independently.

Education
|
1999-present
(to be submitted by July 2003)
|
University of Surrey,
Guildford, UK
Ph.D. in Computer Sciences
Thesis title: "Surface Shape and Colour Reconstruction using
Photometric Stereo"
Mostly mathematical work. The project involved designing a number of
algorithms, their statistical and analytical characterisation, as well
as implementation and testing. It required a
strong knowledge of linear algebra, statistical analysis, and
classification techniques. The algorithms and the classification system
were implemented in C++, whereas their prototypes were tried out on
Matlab. The results were reported in two journal publications and a
number of presentations including conferences. Three further papers
are to be submitted by May 2003. |
1997-1999
|
University of Surrey,
Guildford, UK
MSc with distinction in Computer Sciences
Thesis Title (as MSc by Research student):
"Performance characterisation of the crack
detection algorithm"
Mostly mathematical work. The error propagation was done for the
algorithm using analytic and statistical approaches. The
programming for the thesis was done in C++ language. The results are
published in a journal paper.
Awarded the Motorola Prize for the best Research MSc project.
Thesis Title (as Taught MSc student):
"Bandwidth extensions for IR detectors"
Implemented an algorithm which allows significant improvement of an
image resolution by using presampling and shifting. Analysed the
performance of the algorithm in the case of quantised and noisy
images. The work was done in C++ language.
Coursework included image and speech coding, pattern recognition, C++,
JAVA, concurrency, databases.

1986-1993
|
Novosibirsk State University,
Novosibirsk, Russia
MSc in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics.
Thesis Title: "Basic Interpretating System for Creating and
Running Educational Programs" (in Russian)
Designed (together with a fellow student) and implemented an original
system for school education. The system allows to create and run
simple educational programs for younger pupils with variety of
applications - from tests to games. The project was implemented in
LISP language. The results were published in the annual proceedings of
the Institue of Informatics, Novosibirsk, Russia.
Coursework included linear and higher algebra, geometry, mathematical
and functional analysis, probability theory and statistics, mathematical logic,
computational algebra, theory of numbers, theory of algorithms, graph
theory, functional programming. Languages: FORTRAN, Pascal, LISP.
