I am a Professor in the Computer Science &
Engineering Department at UCSD . This means I can now go barefoot and there is
nothing they can do about it! I am a member of the AI Group
at UCSD . My
research group, Gary's
Unbelievable Research Unit , publishes unbelievable research. Our research is
strongly interdisciplinary. It concerns using neural networks and
other computational models applied to problems in cognitive
science and artificial intelligence, engineering and biology. I
have had success using them for such disparate tasks as modeling
how children acquire words, studying how lobsters chew, and
nonlinear data compression. Most recently I have worked on face
and object recognition, visual salience and visual
attention, and modeling early visual cortex.
