Lourdes Agapito

I hold the position of Reader in Computer Vision at the School of Eectronic Engineering and Computer Science, at Queen Mary University of London where I am a member of the Vision Laboratory .

My research area is Non-Rigid and Articulated Motion Analysis. My particular interest is on developing methods for accurate recovery of the 3D shape of deformable and articulated objects from monocular video sequences. I am the holder of an ERC Starting Grant funded by the European Research Council.
