PhD Project
Compressed Motion Sensing and Dynamic Tomography supervised by Prof. Christoph Schnörr and Dr. Stefania Petra
The objective of my PhD project is to extract the 3D motion field from 2D image sequences. These sequences are outputs of several cameras observing particles in a scene from different angles. This task can already be solved by dividing it into two separate computation: 3D reconstruction based on the images and motion estimation afterwards. My PhD project focuses on imposing realistic physics on the motion and joining both computations in a single optimization problem in order to achieve synergy effects.
