Dr Richard Gault

School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science

The research focus of my team is computer vision for microscopy data with applications in medicine, health, and life science. We are particularly focussed on the development of novel deep-learning approaches to address the fundamental limitations of existing image analysis methods. This ranges from image generation, visualisation, data representation, and image analysis.
