Oisin Mac Aodha
Mac Aodha conducted postdoctoral research at UCL from 2013 to 2016 with Gabriel Brostow and Kate Jones. The work helped scientists examine large audio and visual datasets with interactive learning methods. He worked as a Caltech postdoctoral researcher with Pietro Perona and the Visipedia team from 2016 to 2019. This connects vision research with tools for recognizing and studying the natural world. His research covers 3D understanding, human-in-the-loop methods and biodiversity monitoring. He is an Edinburgh reader and works with a biodiversity-monitoring interest group.
