PhD Studentship in Computer Vision
PhD Studentship in Computer Vision
Description : PhD Studentship in Computer Vision – 3D Face Appearance Modelling A fully funded 3 year PhD studentship is available for UK and EU students in the Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition group at the University of York, UK. The studentship will be part of a project related to 3D face processing. The work will be very much at the crossover between vision and graphics and includes reflectance modelling, statistical models of appearance and shape, spectral illumination/reflectance models. There is the possibility of collaboration with psychology and medical imaging. The project offers genuine potential for doing world leading research and it is expected that the results will be published in the top vision and graphics conferences. There will be a considerable practical element involved in the research. We have a well equipped dark room with a Cyberware head and face laser range scanner and a large range of optical equipment and cameras. An interest in and knowledge of digital photography would be of benefit, as would any experience with practical experimentation. Applicants must have at least a 2.1 degree (or equivalent) in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, Mathematics or a related discipline. Previous experience of computer vision, image processing or computer graphics is desirable. Good programming skills and a strong mathematical background are prerequisites. Candidates must be able to start the PhD in early 2009. The CVPR group is based in the Department of Computer Science. The Department was awarded a 5* classification in the 1996 and 2001 research Assessment Exercises (RAE), and was one of just 3 computer science departments to receive a 6* funding allocation in March 2003. The Department also received an “Excellent” rating in the most recent teaching quality assessment (TQA) and was awarded one of the 1996 Queens Anniversary Medals for Higher Education. Funding Notes The studentship will cover fees (at UK/EU Level) and includes a tax free stipend (currently £12,900 per annum) and provision for conference travel. Initial enquiries should be directed to Dr William Smith (email: wsmith@cs.york.ac.uk, tel: +44 (0)1904 434733). Further details on the application process will then be provided.
