Prof. Dr. Mario Vranješ

Prof. Dr. Mario Vranješ received MSc and PhD degrees in electrical engineering from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Information Technology, University of Osijek, Croatia in 2006 and 2012, respectively. Today, he works as an associate professor at the same faculty and teaches several different courses in the areas of digital image and video processing, image and video compression, computer vision and machine learning. In his research work, he primarily deals with the field of computer vision and machine learning with an emphasis on automotive applications. So far, he has led more than 10 scientific research projects related to his research areas. As part of his scientific and research work, he has published more than 80 publications in high-ranking international journals and at international conferences where he has presented a large number of papers. Dr. Vranješ is a co-inventor on several international patents. During his scientific career, he visited foreign institutions several times in order to improve his knowledge and skills. Due to the results achieved during his studies and his scientific research work, he was awarded several times as the best student of his home faculty and as the best researcher at his home faculty.
