Summary¶
As a postdoctoral researcher at the EcoVision lab at University of Zurich, I collaborate with Jan Wegner to design deep learning methods for remote sensing and environmental applications.
Before joining UZH, I completed my PhD on "Efficient Learning on Large-Scale 3D Point Clouds" at IGN and ENGIE Lab CRIGEN, under the supervision of Loïc Landrieu and Bruno Vallet.

SuperCluster proposes a framework for efficient panoptic segmentation of large-scale
point clouds. We formulate the panoptic task as a graph clustering problem. We train
a model to predict desirable node and edge attributes to be used as input for a
downstream graph clustering algorithm. This allows for training a model with only
local supervision, without the need for non-maximum suppression, instance matching,
and without any prerequisite on the number of objects in the scene.
SuperCluster achieves new SOTA panoptic segmentation on indoor datasets S3DIS Area 5
(50.1 PQ (+7.8)) and ScanNetV2 (58.7 PQ (+25.2)), as well as outdoor datasets
KITTI-360 (48.3 PQ) and DALES (61.2 PQ).

SPT is a superpoint-based transformer 🤖 architecture that efficiently ⚡
performs semantic segmentation on large-scale 3D scenes. This method includes a fast
algorithm that partitions 🧩 point clouds into a hierarchical superpoint structure,
as well as a self-attention mechanism to exploit the relationships between
superpoints at multiple scales.
We reach SOTA on S3DIS 6-Fold (76.0 mIoU),
KITTI-360 Val (63.5 mIoU), and DALES
(79.6 mIoU)n with:

An end-to-end multi-view aggregation method for 3D semantic segmentation from images and point clouds. We reach SOTA on S3DIS and KITTI-360 without requiring point cloud colorization, meshing, or depth sensors: just point clouds ☁, images 📸, and their poses.
