I am a full-time Research Associate at The Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) since Fall 2014 and M.S. student since Fall 2016. I am currently working under the supervision of professor
Yaser Sheikh, and I previously worked for 2 years with professor
Fernando De La Torre.
Projects:The main projects I have contributed to are
OpenPose, the
Panoptic Studio,
IntraFace, and the
FeelingSpector. I have also collaborated in projects with Ford and General Motors, among others.
Currently I am working on whole-body (body, hands and face) keypoint estimation from single RGB images, focusing on the compression of CNNs to allow accurate whole-body estimation on embedded systems and low-range devices, e.g. cell phones.
Before CMU:Before joining the Robotics Institute, I obtained a B.S. in Telecommunication System Engineering (similar to Electrical and Computer Engineering in US) from Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena, Spain. While an undergraduate, I had the opportunity to work on stereoscopic image rectification and embedded system problems under the supervision of professor
Javier Toledo.
