Background
I am a fourth year PhD student in the Computer Vision group under Prof. Roberto Cipolla's guidance. My research has involved developing algorithms and strategies for low-rank optimization problems in computer vision, namely bundle adjustment in 3D vision. Throughout my PhD, I have closely worked with
Dr Andrew Fitzgibbon and
Dr Christopher Zach. My study has been generously funded by
Microsoft Research PhD Scholarship and
Toshiba Research Europe Studentship.
