CV

My core research sparks from Visual Computing Techniques for Cultural Heritage Applications. I currently work as a Postdoctoral Research for EU Horizon PERCEIVE (Perceptive enhanced realities of colored collections through AI and virtual experiences) where I design and develop methods for the restoration of aged artworks. A second project I work for in my Postdoc is "Lying Pen of Scribes", where I deal with the digitization and image analysis of ancient manuscripts.

Previously, I completed my PhD degree at NTNU (2023), with a thesis entitled "Spectral and Multi-light Imaging for Cultural Heritage: Material Analysis and Appearance Reconstruction". Between 2015 and 2018, I have been working on developing acquisition and processing tools for a Multispectral Reflectance Transformation Imaging setup within the H2020 project, Scan4Reco.  In parallel, I have been involved in two COST Actions, namely "Color and Space in Cultural Heritage" and "Archaeological Knowledge Production and Use in the Digital Environment".

I hold a joint  MSc diploma in Spectral Sciences and Multimedia Technologies awarded by  the 4-university Erasmus Mundus Consortium "Color  in Informatics and Media Technology" (2013) and a BSc in Informatics issued by the Faculty of Cybernetics, Statistics and Informatics in Bucharest, Romania (2011).  

My quintessential research objective is to explore the benefits of imaging systems and computational methods for  facilitating the analysis, visualization, understanding and reproduction of cultural heritage materials.
