Our research activity has been conducted in the context of diverse research projects funded by public institutions. Our team has established collaboration links with research groups in other centres, like the Information Science Institute of the University of Southern California, the Laforia Laboratory at the Paris VI University, The ISISTAN Institute of the University of Buenos Aires, the Multimedia Applications Group at the Munich University and the ISTI-CNR in Pisa, Italy.

The group is also involved in providing professional advice for companies and institutions that need to incorporate advanced information processing techniques, and in the development of R+D projects that require using these techniques. In this respect we promote the direct involvement of companies with our centre, its faculty and students, fostering collaboration and mutual stimulus between both environments.

The GHIA group is an interdisciplinary team of faculty and PhD students, with backgrounds in Computer Science, Mathematics, and Physics, among other disciplines, coming from diverse professional environments, including both academic and business sectors.
