Welcome to my page at the Intelligent Autonomous Systems Group. I am a doctoral student currently composing my dissertation on "Appearance Modeling for Multi-View Pedestrian Tracking" under the supervision of Prof. Radig.
Past work: From 07/2009 till 09/2013, I was involved in the cluster of excellence for Cognition in Technical Systems (CoTeSys), where I was responsible for the integration and further development of the Multi-Joint Vision (MuJoVision) project. The project is aimed at obtaining and processing image data in real-time from a large set of cameras simultaneously to facilitate human-robot interaction within a surveyed area, using Computer Vision techniques to extract information about humans and objects within the surveyed scene, examples including person tracking and gesture recognition.
Further research: Other research interests are located within the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Particular interest is the interpretation of human visual communication channels such as Facial Expression Recognition and Gesture Recognition.
Bio: I recieved a Diploma - Dipl.-Inf. (Univ.) - degree from TU München in 06/2009. My diploma thesis topic was "Cross-Database Facial Expression Classification Using Three-Dimensional Geometrically Deformable Models".
