, Wissenschaftliches Personal

PhD and PostDoc Positions in Visual Computing & Artificial Intelligence: We are looking for highly‑motivated PhD students and PostDocs at the intersection of computer vision and machine learning. The positions are fully‑funded with payments and benefits according to German public service positions (TV‑L E13, 100% for PhDs and TV‑L E14, 100% for PostDocs; 45k – 57k Euro / year + benefits). Topics include: Neural Rendering, 3D Reconstruction, SLAM / Pose Tracking, Semantic Scene Understanding, Face/Body Tracking, Non‑Linear Optimization, Media Forensics / Fake News Detection.

Topic / Area: The positions are flexible in terms of research direction within 3D vision with a heavy focus on cutting‑edge deep learning‑based techniques. We are particularly interested in static and dynamic 3D reconstruction, semantic scene understanding, and generative models for photo‑realistic image/video synthesis. The main focus is on high‑impact research with the aim to revolutionize the research field in 3D learning.

Qualifications:

• Applicants for a PhD must hold a Master’s degree in computer science or equivalent.
• Fluent written and spoken English skills are essential.
• Proficient C++ coding skills (this is critical and will be tested).
• Experience with deep learning frameworks (TensorFlow / PyTorch).
• Excitement, self‑motivation, and commitment to revolutionize the field.
• Post‑Doc applicants only: Academic track record with publications at top‑tier venues in computer vision, graphics, or machine learning (CVPR, ECCV/ICCV, Siggraph, Siggraph Asia, NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR).

How to Apply:

• Documents required: CV, research statement, BA and MA transcripts, MA thesis (optional).
• Ask two recommenders who know your work to directly email recommendation letters.
• Send all documents (incl. recommendation letters) directly to Prof. Matthias Niessner ( ).
• We cannot review incomplete applications.
