Research Interests
I am interested in RGB-D data processing for 3D reconstruction using variational methods, especially super-resolution and photometric techniques.
Brief Bio
I received my B.Sc. in Mathematics from the OTH Regensburg in 2013 and my M.Sc. in Mathematics in Science and Engineering from the Technical University of Munich in 2016. Since mid November 2016, I am a PhD student in the Computer Vision Group, headed by Prof. Dr. Daniel Cremers at TUM.
