What are the responsibilities and job description for the Internship - Robust Estimation for Computer Vision position at Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories?
MERL is looking for a self-motivated graduate student to work on robust estimation in Computer Vision. Based on the candidates interests, the intern can work on a variety of topics such as (but not limited to) camera pose estimation, 3D registration, camera calibration, pose-graph optimization, and transformation averaging. The ideal candidate would be a PhD student with a strong background in 3D computer vision, RANSAC, and graduated non-convexity algorithms, and good programming skills in C/C and/or Python. The candidate must have published at least one paper in a top-tier computer vision, machine learning, or robotics venue, such as CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, NeurIPS, ICRA, or IROS. The intern will collaborate with MERL researchers to derive and implement new algorithms for V-SLAM, conduct experiments, and report findings. A submission to a top-tier conference is expected. The duration of the internship and start date are flexible.
