Welcome to the website of the independent Max Planck Research Group for Autonomous Vision! Our group is part of the MPI for Intelligent Systems located in Tübingen, Germany. We are interested in computer vision and machine learning with a focus on 3D scene understanding, parsing, reconstruction and motion estimation for autonomous intelligent systems such as self-driving cars or household robots. In particular, we investigate how complex prior knowledge can be incorporated into computer vision algorithms for making them robust to variations in our complex 3D world.
