Computer Graphics/Computational Photography Postdoctoral Fellow Image Based Rendering, Relighting and Perception for Games (all bibliographic references below) We are looking for a postdoctoral fellow (18 months renewable up to 36 months) to work on Image-Based Rendering (IBR), Image-Based Relighting and Perception for IBR, in the context of Computer Games. This position is in the context of an EU-funded project led by a games company, and including several top-notch computer graphics and vision labs in Europe. The starting date is October 2013 or later. The successful candidate will work with a team consisting of a Ph.D. student, a software engineer and two senior researchers at INRIA, as part of a broader European consortium. The project aims to provide working solutions for image-based rendering (IBR) and relighting, continuing the successful line of work in image-based navigation in [Chaurasia 11, Chaurasia 13], intrinsic image with the goal of achieving relighting [Laffont 12, Laffont 13] and the study of perception for IBR [Vangorp 11, Vangorp 13] (see below). The successful candidate will develop novel research solutions to outstanding problems in image-based rendering, image-based relighting and perception for image-based methods. Typical research questions include: how to provide real-time inpainting for regions which are not present in input photos/videos during interactive navigation; providing real-time relighting during image-based navigation by developing robust inverse global illumination and material models based on sparse and possibly inaccurate 3D data; developing predictive models for the perception of artifacts in IBR (e.g., ghosting or popping), by studying the human vision literature and developing appropriate experimental protocols. These are just examples, and the successful candidate will have significant freedom in proposing the exact research topic in the same overall research area. The ideal candidate must have a Ph.D. in Computer Graphics or Computer Vision (with applications to graphics). A top-level record of research publications in these fields is required. The candidate must be fluent in English. The position will be at the REVES research group in Sophia-Antipolis, http://www-sop.inria.fr/reves, situated in the beautiful French Riviera. The position will start Oct/Nov 2013. |
