I am now a visiting scientist in the Department of Computer Science of Columbia University. I'm an Associate professor in the EE/CS department of Lehigh University.
My research interests span vision, numeric computing, information-based complexity, image processing, object oriented software, and light-wave networks. To learn more about my research see TBoult's Research Page
I am also an ex-Columbia-faculty (86-94), an ex-Columbia-graduate student (MS in CS 83-84, Ph.D. in CS 84-86) and an ex-Columbia-undergraduate (B.S. Applied Math 79-83). As a doctoral student I received an IBM graduate fellowship. I was awarded an NSF Presidential Young Investigator (1990) and have support from NSF (3 other grants), ARPA, and industrial funding from AT&T, IBM, Texas Instruments and Siemens. Eight CU doctoral students have graduated under my direction, two of them (G. Wolberg and L. Wolff) have since won NSF NYI's. In 1990 I received the NCR Stakeholder award which is given from time to time to an outstanding EE or CS faculty member at Columbia.
While I'm not paid by Columbia, I still visit a bit because I have students here including Ph.D. students:
and few undergraduates and MS students.I maintain research connections to the Vision/Robotics Lab with
I also have research collaborations with the information-based complexity group of See also CAC-NET which is an electronic conferencing system for researchers in algorithms and complexity.I dabble a bit in many things including vision, numeric computing, image processing, object oriented software, and light-wave networks. I also enjoy Baking, board games, boating, cooking, fishing, guitar, golf, hiking, poetry, racket sports, scuba diving, skiing/shredding, swimming, volleyball and water skiing. (When I get the time, of course ;-) I'm even decent at a few of these, e.g. I placed first in the 1991-1992 Budweiser/NASTAR All-star ranking for New Jersey skiers in the 30-39 age bracket with a time was just 5\% behind that posted by the NASTAR National Pace-setter, U.S. Olympian Matt Grosjean.
For poetry/prose that reflects my philosophy try:
