Toon Huysmans

Personal

Biography: 

Toon Huysmans was born in Geel, Belgium on November 19, 1981. He attended high school at the Technical Institute Sint-Paulus in Mol. In 1999 he moved to Antwerp to study Computer Science and he received the Master of Science degree in Computer Science in 2003 (magna cum laude). His graduation research concerned diamond cut optimization and was carried out at the Vision Lab of the University of Antwerp in close collaboration with the companies DiamCad and DiamScan. In October 2003, he entered the world of medical image and geometry processing by joining the Vision Lab as a PhD student where he enjoyed an IWT scholarship. His doctoral research focussed on parameterization and correspondence construction for tubular surfaces and related applications. Currently, he is with the Vision Lab as a post-doctoral researcher working on valorization of the techniques developed during his doctoral research.
