NTU talk: 3D Reconstruction from Images

Title: 3D Reconstruction from Images

Shang-Hong Lai
Department of Computer Science
National Tsing Hua University

Time: 2:20pm, March 26 (Fri), 2010
Place: Room 103, CSIE Building

Abstract: The goal of 3D computer vision is to recover real-world three-dimensional information of the scene or objects from 2D images. There have been many different approaches with various image acquisition set-ups to achieve the 3D reconstruction in computer vision. In this talk, I will discuss some 3D reconstruction systems and some researches on 3D reconstruction in my lab. I will present our researches on 3D reconstruction from multi-view images, two-view (stereo) images, and a single image. Some 3D reconstruction results will be shown to demonstrate the performance of our systems.

Bio: Shang-Hong Lai received the BS and MS degrees in electrical engineering from National Tsing Hua University in 1986 and 1988, respectively. He also received the PhD degree from University of Florida, Gainesville, USA, in 1995. He worked for Siemens Corporate Research in Princeton, USA, as a research scientist from 1995 to 2000. Then, Dr. Lai returned to Taiwan to join department of computer science, National Tsing Hua University, as a faculty member. He is currently a professor and associate chair in the same department.
