Information Integration and Human Interaction for Indoor and Outdoor Spaces
The goal of this research project is to provide a framework model that integrates existing models of indoor and outdoor space, and to use this model to develop an interactive platform for navigation in mixed indoor and outdoor spaces.

Perception of Scene Layout by Machines and Visually Impaired Users
The project investigates computational methods for object detection, spatial scene construction, and natural language spatial descriptions derived from real-time visual images to describe prototypical indoor spaces (e.g., rooms, offices, etc).

Theory of Topological Relations for Compound Spatial Objects
The core activity is the study of the interplay between topological spatial relations with holed regions and topological spatial relations with separated regions to address the potentially complex configurations that feature both holes and separations.

Data Management in Ad-Hoc Geosensor Networks
This project explores data management methods for geosensor networks. An important task of such geosensor networks is to collect, analyze and estimate information about continuous phenomena under observation such as temperature or pollutants.
