Paula (ITN) successfully defends her PhD thesis
Paula Žitinski Elías successfully defended her PhD thesis titled âImproving image quality in multi-channel printing â multilevel halftoning, color separation and graininess characterizationâ on April 21st, 2017 at the Media and Information Technology, Linköpings Universitet, Sweden. Her supervisors were Sasan Gooran and Daniel Nyström. She now holds a PhD degree in Visualization and Media Technology.
Paula’s research was part of an EU Marie Curie project about the current research questions in high fidelity printing. One of Paula’s main contributions is a model that predicts the colorimetric outcome and the perceived quality of ink combinations by incorporating filters that mimic the human visual system. More information can be found in Paula’s website about her research on perceived image quality applied to colorimetric models.
Heartiest congratulations to Dr.Paula Žitinski Elías!

CP7 researcher Teun successfully defends his PhD thesis
Cp7 researcher Teun Baar successfully defended his PhD thesis titled “Optimization of print quality with multi-channel printing” on October 16, 2015 at Télécom ParisTech, Paris, France. Heartiest Congratulations! to Dr. Teun Baar.
Teun got some interesting and challenging questions and also positive comments on for example the presentation style. The jury did like the way Teun presented his research in an understandable way focused on a broad audience, while at the same time being able to focus on details of the research. The jury did also pointed out the diverse set of topics that were researched by Teun, which was possible due to several collaborations within the CP7 project.
The jury members for Teun defense were Prof. Jan Allebach, Prof. Christine Andraud, Prof. Yann Gousseau and Prof. Sabine Süsstrunk.
