Professor of Applied Mathematics, Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretic Physics (DAMTP), University of Cambridge
Carola-Bibiane Schönlieb is Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Cambridge. There, she is head of the Cambridge Image Analysis group and co-Director of the EPSRC Cambridge Mathematics of Information in Healthcare Hub. Since 2011 she is a fellow of Jesus College Cambridge. She also holds the Chair of the Committee for Applications and Interdisciplinary Relations (CAIR) of the European Mathematical Society.
Dr Schönlieb's research interests range from nonlinear partial differential equations to computational- and convex analysis, with applications in digital image- and signal processing. She studies fourth-order equations and nonsmooth optimization problems, like the total variation functional, for image reconstruction, especially for what is called image inpainting. Moreover, she works on computational methods for large-scale problems appearing in 3- and 4-D imaging. Within this context she is interested in both the theoretical and numerical analysis of the problems considered as well as their practical implementation and their use for real-world applications like arts restoration and medical imaging.
