Observational Astronomy
This interest is an extension of the work I did for my doctoral dissertation. It involves CCD photometry of eclipsing binary stars with a telescope and analysis of the observed data for the determination of the light curve elements in conjunction with a popular computational model in this field, the “Wislon-Divenney” model.

Computational Physics
Computer vision and Artificial Intelligence techniques are now widely used in a variety of industrial and scientific fields. My interest in the use of these tools is to design and construct robust automatic eclipsing binary star classifiers. This work will incorporate knowledge from advance in image processing and artificial neural networks.
