The Camera Culture group is hosting Prof. Eduardo Bayro Corrochano for the upcoming year.
He is a world expert in geometric algebra (GA) and its applications (see biography below)
Starting October 15th (Wednesday) he will do a crash course on the topic (see attached summary) for 8-10 weeks. It is not for credit.
We will meet every week on Wednesday between 3-5 m room to be announced)
If you wish to attend please contact Dan Raviv

EDUARDO JOSE BAYRO-CORROCHANO gained his Ph.D. in Cognitive Computer
Science in 1993 from the University of Wales at Cardiff.
From 1995 to 1999 he has been Researcher and Lecturer at the Institute for
Computer Science, Christian Albrechts University, Kiel, Germany, working on
applications of geometric Clifford algebra to cognitive systems. At present he is a
full professor at CINVESTAV Campus Guadalajara, Mexico, Department of
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
His current research interest focuses on geometric methods for artificial
perception and action systems. It includes geometric neural networks,
visually guided robotics, humanoids, color image processing, Lie bivector
algebras for early vision and robot maneuvering. He developed the
quaternion wavelet transform for quaternion multi-resolution analysis
using the phase concept.
He is associate editor of the Journal of Robotica, Journal of Mathematical
Imaging and Vision, IEEE Trans. Neural Networks and Learning Systems and
member of the editorial board of Journal of Pattern Recognition and Journal
Of Theoretical And Numerical Approximation.
He is editor and author of the following books:
Geometric Computing for Perception Action Systems, E. Bayro-Corrochano, Springer Verlag, 2001
Geometric Algebra with Applications in Science and Engineering, E. Bayro-Corrochano and G.

Geometric Computing for Wavelet Transforms, Robot Vision, Learning, Control and Action, Springer Verlag, 2010.
He has published over 220 refereed journal papers, book chapters and conference
papers. He is a IEEE senior member and fellow of the IAPR society. He
acted as general chair of CIARP'2009, AGACSE'2008, CIARP'2014 and for the
next IAPR ICPR'2016 and IEEE Humanids'2016.
He recently built the humanoids Mexone 110 cm with 39 DOF and CINVESROB
166cm with 40 DOF, a system for intelligent guidance of visually impaired
people, a versatile and economical neuro-navigator and a 3
manipulator-robot system for minimal invasive surgery.
