3DVisLab 3D vision group at CSE@IITJ and CVIT@IIITH
Group Picture


This is a research group led by Dr Avinash Sharma, who has recently moved to Computer Science & Engineering department at IIT Jodhpur as an associate professor while continuing his affiliation with Centre for Visual Information Technology (CVIT), IIIT Hyderabad. We primarily work on the computer vision and machine learning problems with a focus on 3D scene understanding and reconstruction. Specifically, we deal with problems where human body is reconstructed from 2D images and analysed in 3D, generation & analysis of 3D terrains, registration of point clouds of indoor scenes captured from commodity sensors as well as large outdoor scenes captured from LIDAR scanners.

We are looking for motivated PhD students and long-term RAs/interns with interest in 3D computer vision to join us. Please check here for more details.
