Shafiq Ahmad

Currently, I am Postdoc Research Fellow at the Computer Vision and Image Processing (CVIP) Lab, University of Palermo, Italy. I am working on multimodal co-speech gesture generation using generative AI.

Previously, I served as a Research Fellow and completed PhD in Computer Vision and Deep Learning at PAVIS, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT), Genova, Italy, under the supervision of Dr. Alessio Del Bue and Dr.Pietro Morerio. During PhD, I focused on developing privacy-preserving systems in video surveillance, specifically addressing person re-identification and human pose estimation in event-based vision systems. Additionally, we introduced a first-ever event-based dataset for person re-identification.

Hold MS degree in Electrical Engineering, specializing in Computer Vision and Machine Learning, and Bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering.
