Evangelos Kalogerakis obtained his PhD from the department of Computer Science, University of Toronto in September 2010. His PhD introduced new machine learning algorithms for geometry processing by example. He was a postdoctoral researcher at the Computer Graphics lab of Stanford University from 2010 to 2012. He joined the Department of Computer Science at the University of Massachusetts in September 2012.
Evangelos Kalogerakis' research deals with the development of the next generation computer graphics techniques that will enhance human creativity and automate complex visual content processing tasks for novice users, scientists and artists. He is particularly interested in developing machine learning algorithms for shape analysis and synthesis. He is very excited to develop algorithms and tools that allow users to quickly and easily create, acquire, texture, customize, animate, and artistically render three-dimensional content for virtual worlds, computer games, films, architecture, computer-aided design, information visualization, and medical applications.
