Required qualifications:
• A Ph.D. in computer science or related field (with specialization in
either computer vision or machine learning);
• Proficiency with programming languages, in particular Python, C/C++
and MATLAB;
• Experience in the 3D computer vision field e.g. 3D reconstruction from
RGBD data, photometric stereo, structure from motion, BRDF estimation,
structured light systems.
• Publication in major Computer Vision and/or Computer Graphics
conferences/journals (e.g. CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, SIGGRAPH, Eurographics,
ToG, TPAMI, IJCV, IVC, CVIU).
