Vincent Sitzmann will join the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science as an assistant professor in July 2022. He earned a BSc from the Technical University of Munich and an MSc and PhD from Stanford University. Sitzmann is currently a postdoctoral associate at the MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab under the mentorship of professors Josh Tenenbaum, Bill Freeman, and Fredo Durand. His research is at the intersection of machine learning, graphics, neural rendering, and computer vision. He seeks to build algorithms that learn to reconstruct, understand, and interact with 3D environments from incomplete observations like the way humans can. Sitzmann was awarded with the NeurIPS 2019 Honorable Mention Outstanding New Directions Paper Award.
