Fabio Cuzzolin was born in Jesolo, Italy. He received the laurea degree magna cum laude from the University of Padova, Italy, in 1997 and the Ph.D. degree from the same institution in 2001, with a thesis entitled “Visions of a generalized probability theory”. During his doctoral term he worked at the Autonomous Navigation and Computer Vision Laboratory at the University of Padova. He has been researcher in the Image and Sound Processing Group of the Politecnico di Milano in Milan, Italy, and postdoc with the UCLA Vision Lab at the University of California at Los Angeles, California. He was Marie Curie fellow with the Perception project at INRIA Rhone-Alpes, Grenoble. He is with the Department of Computing of Oxford Brookes University since September 2008. He is a Reader there since September 2011, and has taken on the role of Head of the Artificial Intelligence and Vision research group in September 2012. His research includes computer vision applications like gesture and action recognition, object pose estimation and identity recognition from gait. His main field of investigation remains however that of generalized and imprecise probabilities. In particular, he has formulated a geometric approach to uncertainty measures, focusing mainly on the probabilistic approximation problem, and studied the notion of independence of sources from an algebraic point of view. He is the author of some 80 peer-reviewed publications, published or under review, including 2 monographs, 3 book chapters, 16 journal papers (+ 6u/r), 9 chapters in collections. He is member of IEEE since 2001, and member of the Society for Imprecise Probabilities and Their Applications, member of the Board of Directors of the Belief Functions and Applications Society (BFAS), and was part of the Technical Programme Committe of some 50 international conferences. He is Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems and of the IEEE Transactions on Human-Machine Systems.
