As a researcher at the UTIA, Czech Academy of Science, I have been advancing the field of material appearance for over 20 years.

I have received PhD in cybernetics and AI from the Czech Technical University in Prague in 2006. I did postdoc as a Marie-Curie fellow at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh. Since 2002 I am affiliated with UTIA, The Czech Academy of Sciences and co-authored more than 90 research publications.

My research involves all aspects of material appearance, integrating methods from image processing, computer graphics, and perceptual analysis at intersection of academia and industry.
