RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX
August, 1996 - August, 1998

Researched design and quality assessment of forward and invers error diffusion halftoning algorithms. Devised objective measures of subjective image quality. Investigated fast inverse halftoning algorithms and evaluating inverse halftoned image quality. Ph. D. project, funded by a grant from Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, Palo Alto, CA.

University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX
January, 1995 - August, 1996

Investigated and devised lossy and lossless image compression schemes for multispectral satellite (AVIRIS 224 band) data. Project sponsored by a grant from NASA.

University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX
May, 1993 - December, 1993

Complete investigation into the effects of negative amplifier output impedance in driving moving-coil loudspeakers. Frequency response, time domain response, stability and viability. Master's thesis project.

Oxford University, Oxford, England
March, 1991 - April, 1991

Research work in optics at the Clarendon Physics Laboratory. Designed and built a laser driver for use in crystallography. Built analog hardware and wrote 80286 assembly code to drive the laser automatically. Project sponsored by the Clarendon Laboratory.
