Short bio:
Lazaros Nalpantidis is Professor of Autonomous Systems at the Department of Electrical and Photonics Engineering, Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Lazaros also serves as Head of the Automation and Control Group and Head of Studies for the DTU's MSc programme in Autonomous Systems.Before joining DTU, Lazaros was Associate Professor of Robotics at Aalborg University Copenhagen, Denmark, where he also served as Head of Section for Sustainable Production within the Department for Materials and Production. He has been a post-doctoral researcher at the Centre for Autonomous Systems (CAS), Computer Vision & Active Perception Lab. (CVAP) of the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Sweden. Sweden. Lazaros organized and chaired the 10th International Conference on Computer Vision Systems (ICVS 2015) in Copenhagen, co-organized various workshops on Cognitive Robotics, and has served as editor and guest editor in various journals on robotics and robot vision. He has been involved in numerous research projects funded by the European Commission, European Space Agency, as well as Greek, Swedish and Danish states. Lazaros' research is in the area of autonomous systems, robot perception and machine learning.
