Job Description:
MERL seeks a motivated graduate student to conduct research in
robust estimation for computer vision. Depending on the candidate?s
background and interests, the internship may involve topics such as
? but not limited to ? camera pose estimation, 3D registration,
camera calibration, pose-graph optimization, or transformation
averaging. The ideal applicant is a PhD student with strong
expertise in 3D computer vision, RANSAC, or graduated non-convexity
algorithms, along with solid programming skills in C/C++ and/or
Python. Candidates should have at least one publication in a
leading computer vision, machine learning, or robotics venue (e.g.,
CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, NeurIPS, ICRA, or IROS). The intern will work
closely with MERL researchers to develop and implement new
algorithms for visual SLAM (V-SLAM), perform experiments, and
document results. The goal is to produce work suitable for
submission to a top-tier conference. The start date and duration of
the internship are flexible. Required Specific Experience
Demonstrated experience in 3D computer vision, RANSAC, or graduated
non-convexity algorithms for vision applications. The pay range for
this internship position will be 6-8K per month. Mitsubishi
