I am Professor (Profesor Titular de Universidad) at Computer Science Department of Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona, and Senior Scientist at CVC. I am BSc in Physics, MSc in Remote Senging and PhD in Physics (Astronomy Department) at Universitat de Barcelona where I worked on Astronomy and Remote Sensing data and image processing. I was researcher at Institut Cartogràfic de Catalunya (Generalitat de Catalunya) where I worked on SAR processing. Since I am at CVC, I worked in Computer Vision developing computational algorithms for colour perception, visual saliency, tone-mapping operators and visual discomfort. Presently, I am in the Computational Neuroscience field, interested in bridging the gap between Computer Vision and Computational Neuroscience, working in the development of biologically plausible computational neurodynamical and spiking models of the visual cortex.
