Currently I'm doing my PhD in artificial intelligence(AI) at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen. My project is called Cassandra: Context-Aware SenSing for AggressioN Detection and Risk Assessment and is supported by a NWO grant. Goal is to detect human activity, specially aggression, in dynamic environments. Because a single sensormodality cannot always detect this audio and video analysis will be performed. The two will be combined in order to arrive at a cognitive description of the environment.
My initial work will be on the sound recognition part, based on CPSP (continuity preserving signal processing), developed by T.C. Andringa. A more elaborate project description can be found here.
Parallel to my research I'll also be teaching, so far I have been in charge of "computerskills", a first year course introducing Linux, LaTeX and other useful skills. This year I'm an teacher-assitant for "Physical methods", a second year AI course teaching basic mechanics and electromechanics
