Amelia Carolina Sparavigna is a physicist, working mainly in the field of condensed matter physics and image processing. She is Master of Science in Physics (Università di Torino) and Doctor of Philosophy in Physics (Politecnico di Torino). Her scientific researches cover the fields of thermal transport and Boltzmann equation, entropy, liquid crystals and related image processing of polarized light microscopy. She has proposed new methods of image processing inspired by physical quantities, such as coherence lengths. Her recent works mainly concern the problem of image segmentation and applications of generalized entropies. She is also interested in the history of physics and science. The papers that she has published in international journals are mainly on the topics of phonon thermal transport, elastic theory of nematic liquid crystals, texture transitions and entropy.
