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 postodoc with the UCLA Vision Lab at the University of California at Los Angeles, California. He is now Marie Curie fellow with the Perception project at INRIA Rhone-Alpes, Grenoble.

He will be Lecturer with the Department of Computing of Oxford Brookes University starting September 2008.

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 member of IEEE since 2001, and member of the Society for Imprecise Probabilities and Their Applications. He collaborates with several journals, among which the International Journal of Approximate Reasoning, Information Fusion, and the IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics part B.
