Slides uploaded for guest talk in computer vision class at Columbia University

  Visual door detection paper dataset updated

Our paper "Extracting Minimalistic Corridor Geometry from Low-Resolution Images" is accepted in ICIRA 2012 (oral presentation)

 


About Me:

 

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science Department at Columbia University, advised by Prof. Peter K. Allen. My research interests include computer / robot vision, machine learning, and robotics. Recently I have been working on visual recognition of 3D deformable object and robot manipulation.

 

I was a R&D engineer in vision technology group at Restoration Robotics, Inc. in California. I have got my M.S. from Clemson University, advised by Prof. Stanley T. Birchfield.

Selected Projects:

 

Recognition of Deformable Object Category and Pose

 

Paper is currently under review. Details coming soon...

Hair Transplant Delivery System (The first fully automatic surgery robot to harvest hair follicular units.)

Responsibilities:

---fiducial recognition and tracking for hair harvest tensioner using visual servoing

---Stäubli robot (TX 60) manipulation and 3D object recognition using visual perception by stereo cameras

---3D harvest plane registration for implantation on scalp with sparse hairs in site-making module

 

The ARTAS(TM) system is introduced here and two short video demos are here and here.

Hair Treatment Planning System (A software designed for rapid treatment planning of hair restoration for individual patient.)

Responsibilities:

---3D head reconstruction and 3D hair modeling using SlimDX (a wrapper of DirectX)
