Jaime S. Cardoso

Jaime S. Cardoso holds a Ph.D. in Computer Vision in 2006, from the University of Porto. Cardoso is a Full Professor at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP). From 2012 to 2015, Cardoso served as President of the Portuguese Association for Pattern Recognition (APRP), affiliated with the IAPR (International Association for Pattern Recognition). Cardoso is also a Senior Member of IEEE since 2011.
His research can be summed up in three major topics: computer vision, machine learning and decision support systems. Image and video processing focuses on medicine and biometrics. The work on machine learning cares mostly about the adaptation of learning to the challenging conditions presented by visual data, with a focus on deep learning and explainable machine learning. The particular emphasis of the work in decision support systems goes to medical applications, always anchored on the automatic analysis of visual data.
