Hi, I'm Blair.

I'm an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Oberlin College. When I'm not teaching, I work on a wide range of image analysis problems. My specialty is spectral image informatics.

research

spectral analysis

All life emits or reflects a unique spectrum of light. My lab develops algorithms for identifying and isolating these spectral signatures.

image registration

Computing alignment between images is critical for many applications. My lab designs methods for large-scale image registration.

compressed sensing

Compressed sensing allows for the reconstruction of sparse signals from limited data. My lab studies image-based compressed sensing.
