CS&E graduate student Ajay Joshi was awarded a 2010-2011 Doctoral Dissertation Fellowship (DDF). The Fellowship is intended to enable Ph.D. candidates of particular promise to devote full-time effort to the research and writing of their dissertation during 2010-11.

Joshi's research is on the development of machine learning algorithms for improved understanding of image and video content, for applications like web image search, image and video analysis, and large scale image matching. The goal is to minimize human input in various kinds of image classification tasks that have traditionally required significant human supervision. Joshi's adviser is Professor Nikolaos Papanikolopoulos.
