Biography

Bernard Chalmond received the PhD degree in applied mathematics from the University of Paris-Sud (Orsay, France) in 1979, on a thesis dealing with change detection models in times series.

After spending five years as assistant professor of medical informatics at the University Medical Center of Dijon, in 1984 he joined the department of applied mathematics at the University of Paris-Sud, Orsay.

Since 1991, he has been a full professor of information sciences at the University of Cergy-Pontoise UCP.
and he has been affiliated with the center of applied mathematics CMLA , Ecole Normale Supérieure, Cachan.

Dr. Chalmond is performing research in the areas of data analysis (statistical learning) and practical applications of computer vision in industry.
He has been involved in the creation of compagnies in bio-engineering (1985) and numerical imaging (1989)

His main interests have covered statistical methods and algorithms for stochastic processes, spline approximation, multivariate data analysis, 3D object reconstruction and Monte Carlo simulation, in several fields of applications : biological imaging (microscopy), bioinformatics, medical imaging (orthopaedic surgery), non destructive control.
