I am an Associate Professor at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and a Research Scientist at the Computer Vision Center. I have developed novel approaches to solve different problems ranging from color constancy to color stabilization, color characterization, color gamut mapping, high dynamic range imaging, image dehazing, image denoising, and vision color properties such as unique hue prediction and color naming. I have published more than 90 publications, including in top-ranked venues and journals: CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, IEEE-TPAMI, IEEE-TIP, PR, and SIAM-SIIMS. I have an European Patent granted -and a second application in process-, and research experience in cutting-edge research labs in Spain, UK, Canada, and Switzerland, working in high-profile research projects. I have extensive experience in teaching in both undergraduate and master courses in Spain and the UK, with more of 1100 hours of teaching already performed.
