Study of human pose
We study pose in videos and derive 2D and 3D information on the anatomical joints, the estimated head direction, and prototypical poses.
MLV
We investigate different nuances of visual perception in artificial intelligence systems, where computer vision and machine learning are combined to obtain robust data-driven methods addressing a variety of problems.
In this multidisciplinary world, we are interested in mathematically sound algorithms, computational models, and a wide range of applications.
In particular, we study and develop methods for scene understanding, motion analysis, and action recognition, with applications to assisted living, human-machine interaction, and robotics.
Research topics
Cognitively inspired motion understanding
We are interested in the strong interplay between visual computation and cognitive science. We apply our research in particular to HRI.
Scene analysis
We analyse the scene, detecting and tracking objects in 2D and 3D, with a focus on efficiency and on working under limited resources.
Collaborative projects
We bring our expertise in computer vision and machine learning on a variety of projects.
Computer vision for biomedical data challenges
We explore machine learning and computer vision solutions to challenges typical of biological and medical data, including learning with limited or no labels and interpretability. We design and implement methods for the solution of a broad range of biomedical data related applications.
