Professor Ferryman's current research is concerned with the automatic visual surveillance of wide area scenes using computational vision. The research has contributed new results in the areas of model-based vision, visual tracking and surveillance, especially using 3D deformable models.
Specific research includes:
- Model-based methods for people and vehicle surveillance
- Appearance-based modelling
- Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)
- Pose and structure recovery
- Classification
- Path-based tracking of known objects in 3D using single or multiple cameras.
Professor Ferryman is particularly keen to see technology transfer and commercial prototypes based on research.
