ERC Starting Grant for Angela Dai
Spatial 3D Semantic Understanding for Perception in the Wild
For her project entitled "Spatial 3D Semantic Understanding for Perception in the Wild" our PI Angela Dai has been awarded an ERC Starting Grant 2022 by the European Research Council (ERC).
Angela Dai's research focuses on attaining a 3D understanding of the world around us, capturing and constructing semantically-informed 3D models of real-world environments. This includes 3D reconstruction and semantic understanding from commodity RGB-D sensor data, leveraging generative 3D deep learning towards enabling understanding and interaction with 3D scenes for content creation and virtual or robotic agents.
Congrats from us!
