Vision and Pattern Recognition Group of Muhammad Ali Jinnah University is actively involved in basic and applied research in the fields of Image Processing, Machine/Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Classification. The scope of research not only includes the algorithm development and analysis but also system development and the optimizations involved. Presently this group has more than 15 members including 6 Masters students, 5 PhD students and researchers belonging to different organizations. The main areas of research interest include:
- Personal identification based on multiple biometrics recognition such as fingerprint, face, human iris and human gait recognition
- ECG analysis and pattern classification based diagnosis
- Vision based tracking
- Signature verification
- Urdu handwritten script recognition and digitization
- Image registration and vision based navigation
- Fractional Fourier transforms and their applications in machine vision
- FPGA based hardware accelerators for real time image processing
- Video encoding algorithms and their real time implementation and optimization
MVPR group has produced several publications in these areas and has recently been awarded research funding from ICT R&D fund worth more than 31 Million Rupees for the following two research projects:
