About

In October 2012 I completed my doctoral degree at Computer Vision Laboratory, ETH Zurich, were I stayed for the last 4 years. As a member of the CALVIN group I worked together with Prof. Vittorio Ferrari.

Research

My research interests cover computer vision and machine learning. My work focuses on humans, in particular on recovering their 2D articulated pose from monocular data.

Here are links to datasets & code releases that I maintain:

• 2D HPE software
• 2D HPE on-line demo
• We Are Family Stickmen dataset
• Buffy Stickmen dataset
• ETHZ Pascal Stickmen dataset

Past activities

I completed my MSc Degree in Digital Signal & Image Processing under supervision of Toby Breckon at Cranfield University. During my thesis i was focusing on Computer Vision systems for Real-Time Driver Assistance.

After that i stayed for a year at AMAC group as a research fellow and member of the Stellar Team participating in MOD: Grand Challenge 2008.
