Short Bio
Hi, I am Rahul Mourya (राहुल मौर्य), Lecturer and Researcher in Computer Science at School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematical Science (FSE), University of Wolverhampton (UoW), which I joined in October 2023. I am also a member of Digital Innovations and Solution Centre (DISC), which undertakes world-class fundamental and applied research that creates positive impact on society and the economy.
Prior to joining UoW, I worked for 6 years as a Research Associate at School of Engineering and Physical Sciences (EPS), Heriot-Watt University on several research projects funded by EPSRC. Prior to this I worked for 18 months as a PostDoctoral researcher at The Image, Data and Signal Department (IDS), Télécom Paris.
I have a PhD and MSc degree in Computer Science (speciality: Signal, Image, Vision) from Université Jean Monnet Saint-Etienne, France. I also have BEng degree in Electronics and Telecomm. from University of Pune, India
My research interests lie in foundational tools for machine learning, computer vision and inverse problems, including optimization theory and algorithms, signal/image processing and analysis, learning theory and data science, and their multiple applications in, but not limited to, autonomous systems, robotics, sensor networks, and others.
I'm always eager to collaborate on new projects and discuss ideas in my field. Feel free to look into Contact section if you'd like to connect!
