Center for Vision, Graphics and Medical Imaging(CVGMI)
Center for Vision, Graphics, and Medical Imaging (CVGMI) at the University of Florida serves two main purposes:
- To promote basic and applied research in Computer Vision, Vision-Graphics and Medical Image Analysis.
- To provide a research environment for faculty and graduate students with research interests in the aforementioned areas.
Faculty from various Departments are involved in this Center and the Center facilitates their interaction with each other, domestic and international visitors from Universities and industry. The Center has been the site for several workshops for representatives from other Univesities, business, the U.S. Government, and foreign governments (United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia).
Director: Baba C. Vemuri, Ph.D.
Database Systems Research & Development Center
The Database Research Lab is home to six faculty members and their students from the Department of Computer & Information Science & Engineering. Research by the group members focuses on solving complex problems in the area of data and information management and on applying such techniques to new applications including bioinformatics, e-learning, RFID middleware, and sensor networks.
Interim Director: Joachim Hammer, Ph.D.
Harris Networking and Communication Lab
The Harris lab was established in March of 2000 through a donation from Harris Corporation. The main mission of the lab is to push the envelop of research, education and technology in the emerging field of Wireless and Mobile Computing and Networking, spanning multiple application domains. The Harris lab offers exciting research, cool technology, and solid education and training on Mobile Computing. The lab is also the center of several activities including the Wireless College of Engineering Project, and the Mobile Computing Killer App Competition.
Director: Sumi Helal, Ph.D.
Computational Science and Intelligence Lab
The Computational Science and Intelligence Lab focuses on machine learning, pattern recognition, signal processing, information fusion and related areas. The lab is involved with several projects including many focusing on landmine detection using a variety of sensors in a range of modalities. Sensor data that is used includes ground-penetrating radar, hyperspectral imagery, metal detector response, sythentic apeture radar, infrared, and acoustic data.
Director: Paul Gader, Ph.D.
