Abstract: Visual Computing is about the synthesis of images with a computer (rendering) as well as the reconstruction of 3D models from an image (computer vision). “Analysis-by-synthesis” combines the two: to reconstruct the shape of an object, we start with some object and adapt its shape until its rendering looks like the input image. In the talk I will explain this principle in more detail, will show how this is related to AlgoKS and will present results obtained with this approach.

Speaker: Marc Stamminger is a professor for visual computing at the Friedrich-Alexander-University of Erlangen-Nuremberg since 2002. His research is focused on real-time visual computing, in particular real-time rendering and visualization, augmented and mixed reality, and digital image forensics.
