🚨 PhD Opening: 3D/4D SLAM & Inverse Rendering for Endoscopy (NIH funded) at @UNC_CS! 🚨

The Project:
🟩 Ideal for students with a strong background in 3D Computer Vision & interested in medical robotics & visualization.
🟩 Highly collaborative work with roboticists, medical imaging researchers, and clinicians (GI, ENT, Pulmonology).
🟩Aim to publish in top-tier CV/ML/Robotics/Medical Imaging venues.
🟩 Build on our prior works:
1⃣Endoscopy depth estimator: PPSNet [ECCV'24 - https://t.co/THubw1c68K]
2⃣ 3D SLAM for endoscopy: NFL-BA [NeurIPS'25 -https://t.co/63iME90LnU]

Apply now! 📧 Email CV to [email protected] 📝 Formal UNC CS application required (Deadline soon!)

RTs appreciated! 🙏

A whole suite of post-capture camera control using Gaussian splatting!

Check out our paper and meet us at #CVPR2025 to chat more.

Ever wondered if 3DGS could refocus a scene after capture?
Our DOF-GS makes that possible — by learning directly from defocused multi-view images 📷✨

Super excited to share my work on the ultra-thin metalens camera at @SIGGRAPHAsia today!

Our camera, smaller than a penny and with a thickness of just about 2mm, demonstrates exceptional performance outdoors and in-the-wild. 📸 #SIGGRAPHAsia2023

📢New research from our group
“Personalized Video Relighting with an At-Home Light Stage”

(1/3) We show how to leverage screen lighting as an 'at-home Light Stage' and develop a personalized relighting model. We can now replace your background and relight your faces to match it!
