Rui Nóbrega – 2013 website

I am interested in studying new ways to use image and video, make them easy to use, search and be recognizable to the computer. In general I like computer vision, computer graphics, multimedia, intelligent algorithms and cool new interaction devices! I am currently a researcher in IMG at Computer Science Department of the Faculty of Sciences and Technologies of the New University of Lisbon. I also teach Introduction to Computer Programming. I have a Master degree in Computer Sciences Engineering.
