Christoph ReichI'm an ELLIS Ph.D. student at the Technical University of Munich and TU Darmstadt with co-supervision from the University of Oxford. My research focuses on unsupervised scene understanding, self-supervised learning, motion/depth estimation, and 3D reconstruction. I'm supervised by Daniel Cremers (CVG), Stefan Roth (VisInf), and Christian Rupprecht (VGG). I'm a junior member at the Munich Center for Machine Learning and an ELIZA Ph.D. scholarship holder. Prior to starting my Ph.D., I worked as a research intern at NEC Laboratories America (Princeton). Together with my supervisor Biplob Debnath, I worked on controlling standard video codecs for current computer vision models using self-supervised learning. During my studies at TU Darmstadt, I work at the Self-Organizing Systems Lab (Heinz Koeppl) with Tim Prangemeier on 2D and 3D segmentation methods for biomedical applications and generative adversarial networks for live-cell in silico experiments. I also collaborated with the Artificial Intelligent Systems in Medicine Lab (Christoph Hoog Antink) focusing on analyzing ECG data using deep learning. I received a bachelor's in Information Systems Technology (computer science U electrical engineering) and a master's in Autonomous Systems (computer science) from TU Darmstadt. During my bachelor, I was a working student at Bosch and a teaching assistant at the mathematics department and the E5 Lab. Email / CV / GitHub / Google Scholar / LinkedIn / Twitter (X) / Bluesky |
