The MACH group: who we are

We are a brand new Cambridge-based research group with interdisciplinary skills from:

the Cambridge Image Analysis (Prof C.-B. Schönlieb, Dr K. Targonska-Hadzibabic, Mr S. Parisotto);

the Fitzwilliam Museum (Dr S. Panayotova, Dr J. Vine);

the Faculty of Classics (Dr A. Launaro, Ms N. Leone);

the Hamilton Kerr Institute (Dr S. Bucklow).

Aim for 2019-2021Use mathematical image analysis methods mainly developed for medicine-related challenges to process digitalcollections in the arts and humanities.
