I am Marc Bolaños, a PhD Candidate at the CVUB group of the Universitat de Barcelona under the supervision of professor Petia Radeva.
I am working on the development of Computer Vision and Deep Learning methodologies applied on Egocentric images for the analysis and storytelling of the daily life of the users and also on Food analysis for the improvement of healthy eating habits.
