Primary tabs
Dr. Alessandro Leone received the Degree in Computer Science Engineering in 2003 from the University of Lecce. Since 2003 he is researcher at the Italian National Research Council (CNR), Institute for Microelectronics and Microsystems (IMM) in Lecce (Italy). He is interested in Signal and Image Processing, Pattern Recognition, Computer Vision and Smart Multi-sensorial Systems with particular focus on the new Ambient Assisted Living technologies. Eng. Leone is the technical coordinator of the Signal&Image Processing Laboratory and he is mainly involved in development of enabling technologies for healthcare: fall detection & prevention, neurodegenerative cognitive rehabilitation, interoperability platforms and smart wearable sensors for vital signs monitoring. He is author of more than 60 papers in national and international journals and conference proceedings. Dr. Leone has been assistant lecture for the class master “Image Processing” at the University of Salento. He is the technical coordinator of InnovAALab (the Apulian Living Lab on “Healthy, Active & Assisted Living”.) which is hosted by InnovAAL – PPP for research, development and testing of new Technologies and Services on AAL. Moreover, since 2014 Dr. Leone is member of the AAL Forum Program Committee.
