Academic Achievements
- His PhD thesis explores issues related to Structure from Motion (SfM) 3D reconstruction for object and surface analysis, presenting methods to determine the absolute scale and uncertainty of reconstructions using additional sensors. He also proposed an automatic method to separate noise from real surface roughness, comparing SfM with microscopy reconstructions to assess the accuracy of captured data.
Research Experience
- After obtaining his Ph.D. in 2020, he worked as a postdoc in 2021 focusing on self-supervised learning for anomaly detection and harbor safety. Since 2022, he has been an assistant professor with a primary interest in XR and developing synthetic environments for deep learning.
