1998 Winner: Outstanding Undergraduate Award
He was nominated for his work on computer vision. Pedro became interested in image segmentation after several summers working on problems in digital compression at Xerox PARC. His research has led to the development of a formal characterization of certain desirable properties for a segmentation and an efficient algorithm that produces segments having those properties. He has also worked on the design of robots whose motion, when it strayed from ideal, would be automatically corrected through the laws of mechanics. He has been a teaching assistant as well for undergraduate courses at Cornell.
