Research interests

My research concentrates on signal processing in the visual system. The
main focus of my current work is on the perception of ambiguous stimuli, such as binocular rivalry and structure-from-motion. The methods I use
to pursue this goal are behavioural studies of human subjects, and mathematical modelling of neural networks.
