Katja Schwarz
AI Research Scientist in Computer Vision / Machine Learning

Passionate about generative modeling in 2D and 3D. Working at SpAItial. Ex-Meta AI Researcher. Previously PhD at Autonomous Vision Group in Tübingen.
My research lies at the intersection of computer vision and graphics and focuses on 3D vision. In particular, I am interested in enabeling machines to infer 3D representations from sparse observations, such as 2D images. I am passionate about leveraging such representations for generative modeling in 2D and 3D.
I worked as a Research Scientist at Meta AI. Prior to this, I did my PhD in the Autonomous Vision Group (AVG) at Tübingen University and the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, advised by Andreas Geiger. I studied Physics at Heidelberg University where I received my bachelor degree in 2016 and master degree in 2018.
