About
Always happy to discuss new research ideas.
My aim is to develop methods to understand the 3D world from images and videos. Specifically, I work on methods that can be trained with weak or even no supervision. Through this, I hope to enable more wide-spread applications of such methods, and to improve accuracy by training on large, unlabeled datasets.
At the moment, I focus on the subtasks of 3D reconstruction (both static and dynamic), 3D object discovery, as well as the combination of both. There are several techniques that are relevant in this context. By leveraging multi-view consistency, we can get supervision signals for 3D reconstruction. Through motion segmentation and clustering, especially in 3D rather than 2D, we can detect different objects. Self-supervised feature learning further allows to introduce semantic understanding to the model.
In the past, I have worked on depth prediction from multiple frames while considering moving objects (MonoRec, CVPR 2021) and weakly supervised de-rendering for in-the-wild objects (De-Rendering 3D Objects in the Wild, CVPR 2022). My most recent project deals with self-supervised single view reconstruction and volume rendering.

Student Projects
I am open to supervising ambitious and talented Master and Bachelor students for their thesis. If you want to work with me, please send me an email describing the area / project you would like to work on. Please also attach your CV and up-to-date transcript.
A good approach to finding an area is always to check out the papers I have worked on in the past and extending from there.
