Personal Information

Antonis A. Argyros (Αντώνης Αργυρός) is an Associate Professor at the Computer Science Department, University of Crete and a researcher at the Institute of Computer Science (ICS),  Foundation for Research and Technology-Hellas (FORTH) in Heraklion, Crete, Greece. He received a B.Sc. degree in Computer Science (1989) and a M.Sc. degree in Computer Science (1992), both from the Computer Science Department, University of Crete. On July 1996, he completed his PhD on visual motion analysis at the same Department. He has been a postdoctoral fellow at the Computational Vision and Active Perception Laboratory (CVAP) at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. Since 1999, as a member of the Computational Vision and Robotics Laboratory (CVRL) of FORTH-ICS, he has been involved in many RTD projects in computer vision, image analysis and robotics. Currently, he is a project investigator of the EU-funded Integrated Project GRASP. Antonis Argyros is also a faculty member of the "Brain and Mind" interdisciplinary graduate program and a member of the Executive Committee of the European Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics (ERCIM).

 

Research

The research interests of Antonis fall in the areas of computational vision with emphasis on tracking, human gesture and posture recognition, 3D reconstruction and omnidirectional vision. He is also interested in applications of computational vision in the fields of robotics and smart environments. There is a more detailed page describing research interests, activities, research results and demonstrations. Antonis is a project investigator of the FP7-215821 Integrated Project GRASP where he is responsible for the work package related to observing human grasping and learning from it.
