Welcome
Dengxin is a senior researcher at MPI for Informatics, where he heads the research group Vision for Autonomous Systems. He also works with the Computer Vision Lab at ETH Zurich on the research project TRACE-Zurich for Autonomous Driving. In 2016, he obtained his PhD at ETH Zurich under the supervision of Prof. Luc Van Gool and Prof. Gerhard Schmitt. During the PhD study, he was working on the project VarCity for City Modeling based on camera data.
His current research interests include (1) Robust Perception Algorithms in Adverse Conditions; (2) Lifelong Deep Learning (Domain Adaptation, Semi-Supervised Learning, Self-Supervised Learning, Weakly-Supervised Learning, Active Learning ...); (3) Sensor Fusion; (4) Multi-Task Learning; (5) Auditory Perception; and (6) Map-based Perception.
News
2021/07/27: I am starting a new research group Vision for Autonomous Systems at MPI for Informatics, working on deep perception for autonomous driving, especially on the scalability of deep perception methods to new domains, new tasks, and to new sensors. I am hiring PhD students!
2021/07/27: Six papers have been accepted to ICCV 2021.
2021/04/29: ACDC dataset released! ACDC is a new large-scale driving dataset for training and testing semantic segmentation algorithms on adverse visual conditions, such as fog, nighttime, rain, and snow. The dataset and associated benchmarks are now available here.
2021/04/20: We will organize DeepMTL: Workshop on Multi-Task Learning in Computer Vision, along with ICCV 2021. We have an excellent lineup of speakers and will accept full-length papers.
2021/03/01: We will organize the 3rd workshop Vision for All Seasons: Adverse Weather and Lighting Conditions, along with CVPR 2021. We have an excellent lineup of speakers.
