AI for Human Well-being

Carles Ventura Royo

Faculty Member

I am a Professor at Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) and a member of the Artificial Intelligence for Human Well-being group at UOC eHealth Research Center.

My research interests are related to Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, and Affective Computing. I am specially interested in computer vision tasks related with segmentation such as semantic segmentation, instance segmentation and video object segmentation. I am also interested in the application of these research fields to Health.

I have been collaborating with UPC Image Processing Group since 2010 when I got my BS degree in Telecommunication Engineering at Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya. From 2012 to 2016 I also did my PhD in Computer Science in the same research group. Later, in 2017, I also was a visiting professor at ETH Zurich Computer Vision Lab, where I worked on image segmentation with Dr. Jordi Pont-Tuset.
