I'm currently an assistant professor at Department of Computer Science, Texas State University (TSU). I received my Ph.D. from University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) in 2008. I was research fellow of Multimodal Information Access and Synthesis (MIAS) Center at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) in 2007 and visiting student researcher at Media Technologies Lab, Hewlett-Packard Laboratories (HP) in 2008.

I lead the Media and Vision (MV) Lab at TSU. In general, I am interested in methodologies that help create efficient and effective Internet Media and Vision system.

Research in our lab focuses on multimedia information retrieval and image understanding. We are exploring intelligent algorithms that perform visual perception and understanding tasks such as image understanding, image retreival, image annotation, and object recognition etc, that give rise to semantically meaningful interpretations of multimedia information (image and video). These information would be very useful in multimedia information retrieval, image, video understanding and other applications.
