Christian Richardt HomePublicationsTeachingBlogCV Dr. Christian Richardt Christian Richardt is a Research Scientist at Reality Labs Research in Pittsburgh. He was previously a Reader (=Associate Professor) and EPSRC-UKRI Innovation Fellow in the Visual Computing Group, the CAMERA Centre and REVEAL at the University of Bath. His research interests cover the fields of image processing, computer graphics and computer vision, and his research combines insights from vision, graphics and perception to reconstruct visual information from images and videos, to create high-quality visual experiences with a focus on 6-degree-of-freedom VR video. Christian was previously a postdoctoral researcher working on user-centric video processing and motion capture withChristian Theobaltat the Intel Visual Computing Institute at Saarland University and also inthe Graphics, Vision and VideogroupatMax-Planck-Institut für Informatikin Saarbrücken, Germany. Previously,he was a postdoc in theREVESteam atInriaSophia Antipolis, France, working withGeorge DrettakisandAdrien Bousseau, and he internedwithAlexander Sorkine-HornungatDisney Research Zurichwhere he worked on Megastereopanoramas. Christian graduated with a PhD and BA from theUniversity ofCambridgein 2012 and 2007, respectively. His PhD in theComputer Laboratory’sRainbow Groupwas supervised byNeil Dodgson. His doctoral research investigated the full life cycle of videos with depth (RGBZ videos): from their acquisition, via filtering and processing, to the evaluation of stereoscopic display. NewsJune 2022 We presented our work on high-resolution 360° monocular depth estimation (360MonoDepth) at CVPR 2022 in New Orleans. April 2022 I’m excited to join Reality Labs Research in Pittsburgh as a Research Scientist Lead. March 2022 Our work on high-resolution 360° monocular depth estimation (360MonoDepth) will appear at CVPR 2022. December 2021 We are presenting our work on time-of-flight NeRF for dynamic scenes at NeurIPS 2021. I co-chaired the CVMP 2021 conference in London, the first ACM SIGGRAPH affiliated conference to be back in person. October 2021 Our work on time-of-flight NeRF for dynamic scenes will appear at NeurIPS 2021. We have a paper on 360° optical flow accepted at BMVC 2021. I am delighted that 3DV 2021 will be free to attend thanks to our generous sponsors! August 2021 We presented our work on Real-time Global Illumination Decomposition of Videos at SIGGRAPH 2021. June 2021 I co-organised DynaVis – the third workshop on dynamic scene reconstruction at CVPR 2021. Watch the recording of our keynotes, talks and panel discussion on YouTube. I presented OmniPhotos at the OmniCV 2021 CVPR workshop. Watch the recording on YouTube. April 2021 Two Minute Papers covered our work OmniPhotos: “360° VR Photography Is Here! 📸” March 2021 I will be co-chairing the European Conference on Visual Media Production (CVMP) in December 2021 (with Rafał Mantiuk). See you in London! I will be one of the Sponsorship Chairs for 3DV 2021 (with Federica Bogo). January 2021We presented our work on long-term localization in dynamic scenes at WACV 2021. I am co-organising DynaVis – the third workshop on dynamic scene reconstruction at CVPR 2021.December 2020We presented our work OmniPhotos: Casual 360° VR Photography at SIGGRAPH Asia 2020. We presented our work BlockGAN at NeurIPS 2020. I chaired the European Conference on Visual Media Production (CVMP) on 7–8 December, which was free to attend for all.November 2020We presented two papers at ISMAR 2020:Photorealistic Audio-driven Video Portraits (TVCG journal paper)Transitioning360: Content-aware NFoV Virtual Camera Paths for 360° Video Playback I co-chaired the ISMAR 2020 Doctoral Consortium, virtually in Brazil. August 2020We presented two papers at ECCV 2020:MatryODShka: Real-time 6DoF Video View Synthesis using Multi-Sphere Images (oral)Combining Task Predictors via Enhancing Joint Predictability I am co-editing a Research Topic (special issue) on Capturing and Sharing the Real World in Virtual and Augmented Reality in Frontiers in Virtual Reality | Technologies for VR (with Jonathan Ventura and Stefanie Zollmann). Abstracts due 27 October 2020, manuscripts due 3 February 2021.July 2020 Five papers accepted: two papers at ECCV (one oral), two papers at ISMAR (one TVCG), and one paper conditionally accepted at SIGGRAPH Asia.
