Andreas Geiger (original) (raw)

Welcome

Update (May 26): I have co-founded KE:SAI — Kyutai ELLIS Scalable Autonomous Intelligence where I am acting as Chief Executive Officer. I am currently on leave of absence from the University of Tübingen.
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.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Andreas Geiger

Assistant: Kerstin McGaughey

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.

📢 We release "Feed-Forward 3D Scene Modeling: A Problem-Driven Perspective" — a comprehensive survey covering 200+ papers on feed-forward 3D reconstruction!
Instead of categorizing by 3D representations, we propose a problem-driven taxonomy.

Scholar Inbox in conference mode is soooo useful. Get your poster session recommendations with the poster number and access the paper....

Thanks @andreasgeiger.bsky.social and team!

🚀 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:

A big milestone for us. Huge congrats to Bernhard, Daniel and team! The first comprehensive codebase for training RL self-driving agents with state-of-the-art performance on both CARLA 2.0 and nuPlan.

We have released the code for our work, CaRL: Learning Scalable Planning Policies with Simple Rewards.

The repository contains the first public code base for training RL agents with the CARLA leaderboard 2.0 and nuPlan.

Thanks for being our #1 ambassador, Claire! Enjoy ICML!

At #ICML, you can just use scholar inbox to help you find your way through the poster sessions. It just sorts the papers according to your preferences and it really works.
