We propose a PhD subject combining interests in computer vision, computer graphics, surface and appearance modeling, exploring direct applicability of the findings to the field of medical research.
In particular, this PhD investigates scalable, physically-based encoding of skin radiance and SDF surfaces to enable high-fidelity 3D reconstruction and temporal tracking from multi-view video.
The topic targets explainable skin radiance models, targeting contributions both in fundamentals of computer vision, geometric and photometric modeling, where interpetable skin parameters and the high quality geometry resulting from improved modeling can unlock groundbreaking, non-invasive techniques for patient diagnosis and monitoring. In particular, we will be looking at applying such results in the context of a longstanding collaboration with CHU Grenoble, for the benefit of scoliosis patients. Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) is a thre...
