Andreas Geiger

Welcome

I am heading the Autonomous Vision Group (AVG) at the University of Tübingen located in Tübingen, Germany at the heart of CyberValley. I am head of the Department of Computer Science, a core faculty member of the Tübingen AI Center, PI in the cluster of excellence ML in Science and the CRC Robust Vision. I am also an ELLIS fellow and coordinator of the ELLIS PhD program. My research group is developing machine learning models for computer vision, natural language and robotics with applications in self-driving, VR/AR and scientific document analysis.

Main Achievements

Software and Benchmarks

I strongly believe in the power of open software and benchmarks to advance science. Here are some of the most popular releases from our group.

🚀 New paper: ConeGS Error-Guided Densification Using Pixel Cones. We improve 3D Gaussian Splatting by placing Gaussians where they matter most: ConeGS adds primitives along pixel-view cones guided by image error, boosting quality with fewer Gaussians. baranowskibrt.github.io/conegs/

🚀Excited to share our recent work on test-time scaling for feed-forward Gaussian splatting:
we learn a recurrent model ReSplat that is able to iteratively improve the reconstruction quality in a feed-forward manner!

Excited about this new work from @haoyuhe.bsky.social. TLDR: Diffusion language models treat learning and inference differently which lowers performance. RL can be used to overcome this issue for certain problems.

One concern that I have as an AI researcher when publishing code is that it can potentially be used in dual-use applications.
To solve this, we propose Civil Software Licenses. They prevent dual-use while being minimal in the restrictions they impose:
