During my PhD studies and since then, I have been working on more than ten research and application projects. Most of the projects focused on the area of novel ways of processing and searching in complex data types like multimedia or scientific data. Namely, I have mainly worked on design and prototype development of efficient indexes for similarity data retrieval. Lately, we have also worked on several application projects in the areas of Content-based Image Retrieval and security (e.g. biometrics).Selected projects: * Center of Excellence on Multi-modal Data Interpretation on a Very Large Scale (national) * Searching in Large-Scale Multimedia Databases, Similarity Search with Constant Scalability, Visual Image Search on the Web (Czech Science Foundation projects) * Multimedia Analysis (application project, Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic) * Efficient Search in Large-Scale Biometrical Data (Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic) * Center of Excellence: Institute of Theoretical Informatics (Czech Science Foundation) * SAPIR: Search In Audio Visual Content Using Peer-to-peer IR (EU IST FP6 project) * DELOS: Network of Excellence on Digital Libraries (EU IST FP6 project)Technologies used: Java, Linux, Bash, SQL, MySQL, Perl, SVN, Git, Maven, Netbeans, Web services, LaTeXI have published over twenty papers mainly in international conferences and journals.
