Hannah Dee's home page

I'm a lecturer in computer science who started at Aberystwyth University in October 2010. My research areas are computer vision for the analysis of human behaviour; the detection of shadows and reasoning about shadows; and many other computer vision related applications. In particular I'm getting more and more interested in computer vision for plant science: you can find out a bit more about my research interests on the research page, and find links to my published articles on the publications page. I'm also interested in studying student attitudes to the study of computer science, and new ways to make computing (rather than IT) attractive to students both at university and in schools, and you can find out more about that on the computing at school and in the wider community page.

Before Aberystwyth, I did a one year post doc position working in Grenoble (in the French alps), and before that I did a 3 year post doc in Leeds, and before that 6 months in Kingston upon Thames. My PhD is in computing, my masters is in Philosophy, and my BSc is in Cognitive Science; all from the University of Leeds.

I'm active in the BCS - and you can find more information about these activities on the BCS & BCSWomen page. The thing I'm most proud of is setting up the BCSWomen Undergraduate Lovelace Colloquium, a national one-day conference for women students of computing.

Teaching

In the academic year 2012-2013 I'm teaching Professional Development and web technologies to the first years, Interactive Web Programming to the second years. I also supervise final year dissertation projects, and if you're interested in doing a project with me, you can see some ideas on the projects page.
