Jerod Weinman, assistant professor of computer science, is working on important developments in computer vision and pattern recognition research. Specifically, this research is helping computers to:

• Identify characters, such as letters and numbers, that are visible in photographic images.

• Recognize and label familiar images – for example, a family pet – making images more accessible to the visually impaired.

Weinman is also available to discuss related topics such as:

• Artificial intelligences

• Computer vision

• Growing capabilities of computers to recognize language characters along with social implications (i.e., simplifying international travel)

• Futuristic capabilities of computers
