Dr. Dirk Colbry joined ASU in 2007 as an assistant research professor within the School of Computing and Informatics. Colbry is working within the Center for Cognitive Ubiquitous Computing (CUbiC), where his research focuses on pattern recognition and machine vision.
Dr. Colbry's principle areas of research include machine vision and pattern recognition (specializing in biometrics, face recognition and related security applications), and cognitive science. Recent projects include developing a commercially-viable 3D face verification system; adapting pattern recognition processes for tire engineering; and exploring the navigation strategies of humans and animals. Dr. Colbry has taught a range of courses in computer science, including microprocessors, artificial intelligence, compilers, and courses in programming and algorithm analysis.
