Short Profile

George has been employed at the Materials and Engineering Research Institute, Sheffield Hallam University since 2005. Currently, he works within the Centre for Automation and Robotics Research ( MMVL group) and in the past he was a visiting researcher at D-CIS Lab of Thales Research and Technology (Delft, NL). He currently serves as research collaborator for SaFe group at Coventry University.

He is an instrumentation systems engineer with postgraduate and doctoral studies in Pattern Recognition. His interests are in the area of mobile robotics navigation and mapping. He has expertise in robot middleware, sensor calibration and integration, laser based instrumentation and machine perception. He also has working experience in interpreted languages and the application of statistical methodology (e.g. in robot localisation, system identification, reliability).

His work has been performed as part of research projects funded by the EPSRC EP/D001919/1 (Life Sciences - Physics Interface), EP/I028757/1 (Human-Robot Interaction) grants and European Union ICT Advanced Robotics FP6 and FP7 projects. He has also collaborated with a number of industrial organisations, some of which were on small-scale consultancy works, in the field of real-time systems. For example, with Visible Sounds (Wales, 1999; embedded speech recognition), Cell Analysis (England, 2005; bacteria recognition), JMAR (US, 2006; micro-particle laser scattering), Isotropic Limited (England, 2007; process automation) and Merlin360 (England, 2009; ultra-sound localisation). George contributes to open source projects; for example, to GNU Octave (numerical computation language) and Player (robot server/client middleware) project.

He is a Member of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET, UK), the EU Cognition II network, and Fellow of the Royal Statistical Society (RSS, UK). In addition he has served as a commitee / program member in conferences (e.g. ECW09, CIS-2009, TAROS-2011) and is a reviewer for IEEE, IET and IoP-UK conferences and journals.
