Visual Computing and Artificial Intelligence
|
|
I am a Professor of Computer Science at the Christian-Albrechts-University (CAU) in Kiel, Germany, where I lead the Visual Computing and Artificial Intelligence (VCAI) group.
Prior to joining the Faculty of Engineering at CAU, I was a Senior Research Scientist and manager at Adobe Research, a
Software Engineer in the Google AI (Robotics at Google) team and a
Visiting Assistant Professor in the Geometry Lab of the Computer Science Department at Stanford University,
supported by the MPC-VCC and the SAIL-Toyota Center for AI Research.
I received my PhD from the University of Konstanz ( Visual Computing Lab), Germany.
Research Interests
- Generative AI and Synthetic Data
- Multi-Modal and Time-variant Data Streams
- Agent-centric Representations
- Environmental Modeling and Physical Simulations
