Yiannis Aloimonos

Yiannis Aloimonos is a professor of computer science with an appointment in the University of Maryland Institute for Advanced Computer Studies.

Recognized for his research and scholarship in computer vision, much of Aloimonos’ recent work is devoted to the principles governing the design and analysis of real-time systems that possess perceptual capabilities. Such capabilities have to do with the ability of the system to control its motion and the motion of its parts using visual input (navigation and manipulation), and the ability of the system to break up its environment into a set of categories relevant to its tasks and recognize these categories (categorization and recognition).
