- About Me
I obtained my M.Sc. degree in Micro-Engineering from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland in 2003.
I performed my master thesis in the NavLab at the Robotics Institute from the Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh PA, USA.
Then I joined the Computer Vision Laboratory at the ETH Zürich in 2003 where I worked as a research assistant and PhD student in the field 3D reconstructions from monocular endoscopic image sequences.
In April 2008, I finished my doctoral thesis "Quantitative Endoscopy" and was awarded a PhD degree (Dr. Sc. tech.) from the ETH Zürich.
Now I am working as senior scientist for LTU Technologies on automatic image annotation, object recognition and large-scale image retrieval.
