I am currently collaborating with my former colleagues in Lisbon in the PrintART project. The aim is to provide image analysis and learning tools to aid the study of paintings and Portuguese tile art. Check this brief description of the project, I hope you will find it interesting:

PrintART
In collaboration with Duarte Lázaro, Gustavo Carneiro, João Paulo Costeira, João Pedro Monteiro, Manuel Marques and Rosário Salema de Carvalho.
Partially supported by Pourtugese FCT grant PTDC/EEA-CRO/098822/2008.
Project website: http://printart.isr.ist.utl.pt.

This is a project that gathers researchers from ISR/IST, the Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa, and the Museu Nacional do Azulejo with the purpose of designing a software to aid the study and the identification of Portuguese tile art. The project aims to develop a tool that enables the cross-reference of information, matching prints and tiles, so as to identify the original sources of any given panel, as well as matching the tile panels and the figures portrayed in them.
