Noah's research interests are in computer vision and graphics, in particular in recovering structure from large photo collections for use in understanding and visualizing the world around us. Noah is the recipient of a PECASE, a Microsoft New Faculty Fellowship, an Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship, a SIGGRAPH Significant New Researcher Award, and is a Fellow of the ACM.
