Son Tran

 

I am a PhD student at the Department of Computer Science, University of Maryland-College Park

My research interests are in the computer vision and image understanding areas. I work with Professor Larry S. Davis on a number of computer vision problems including 3D surface reconstruction, object recognition, visual tracking and surveillance.
