Vladimir Yugay

I am a PhD candidate in Computer Vision Group at the University of Amsterdam under the supervision of Martin R. Oswald and Theo Gevers. My research interests lie in 3D computer vision, particularly 3D mapping, tracking and SLAM.

During my PhD, I interned at Meta Reality Labs Spatial AI team with Diogo Luvizon. There, I was working on modelling dynamic scenes with large 3D models.

Before, I earned my master’s degree in data engineering and analytics from the Technical University of Munich during which I was part of the research group from Laura Leal-Taixé. There, I was working on multiple object tracking.

During my master’s studies, I also worked on 3D human body modelling as part of Kaia Health. We achieved great results in helping people with chronic back pain using AI and computer vision.

Currently I'm focusing on modelling changing environments and large 3D models. My ultimate goal is to create immersive 3D scenes from commodity hardware.
