My research interest lies in understandting 3D scenes from an object-centric perspective.
By exploring the information disclosed by objects, ranging from geometry to high-level concepts,
my objective is to utilize all sorts of knowledge to enhance real-world applications,
particularly for human-robot interaction and spatial reasoning.
Brief Bio
I am a PhD student in the Smart Robotics Lab
of Technical University of Munich with
Prof. Stefan Leutenegger.
Previously, I received my M.Sc. degree in Robotics, Cognition, Intelligence with high distinction from
Technical University of Munich. Most of my research during master study
is done at
CAMP advised by
Dr. Benjamin Busam,
Dr. Fabian Manhardt and
Prof. Nassir Navab.
