Ian H. Jermyn received a B.A. Honours degree (First Class) in Physics from Oxford University, and a Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics from the University of Manchester, UK. After working as a postdoc at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics in Trieste, Italy, he studied for and received a Ph.D. in Computer Vision from the Computer Science department of the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University. He then joined the Ariana research group at INRIA Sophia Antipolis, France, first as a postdoctoral researcher, and then as a Senior Research Scientist. Since September 2010, he has been Associate Professor (Reader) in Statistics in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Durham University. His research concerns statistical geometry: the statistical modeling of shape and geometric structure, particularly using random fields with complex interactions and Riemannian geometry. This work is motivated by problems of shape and texture modelling in image processing, computer vision, and computer graphics. Using a Bayesian approach, it has been extensively applied to different types of images, including biological and remote sensing imagery. He is also interested in information geometry as applied to inference. See less
