Student Projects in Human Pose Estimation (HiWi/Thesis, 2025)

Overview

Do you want to work on cutting-edge research with the goal of publishing top-tier papers? Depending on your profile and open capacities, I will choose a topic with you from the field of human-pose estimation. I currently cooperate with one of RWTH's big industry partners.

Possible open projects include - activity recognition and forecasting - identity preserving person tracking - physics-preserving human skeleton representations (Hamilton/Lagrange Mechanics etc.) - virtual dolly zoom and depth estimation

I am also interested in computer graphics, applications of sketches and drawings in image generation as well as sensor data analysis (engineering & physics, for ex. rocket engineering or particle physics) etc. If you have a specific idea or are looking for a co-supervisor, do not hesitate to contact me.

HiWis will help preparing research papers and project reports. Projects can either be more research focused (i.e. analyzing papers) or pure coding.
B. Sc. and M. Sc. students will be given a research & implementation task. Based on your own re-implementation of one or several papers, you will... --> [B. Sc.] analyze the results and put them into scientific context (duration: 3-4 months + preparation time) --> [M. Sc.] try to solve an open research problem by combining or extending algorithms and inventing novel solutions (duration: 6 months + preparation time)

Preparation time for thesis projects can be covered by a HiWi contract. Please note that not all projects are suitable for B. Sc. thesis projects.

Requirements

Good (theoretical and applied) background in Machine Learning and/or Computer Vision (Good grades in ML, CV and math exams)
Prior experience with Python, especially PyTorch, and PyTorch Lightning
Strong coding skills in general (clean, object-oriented coding style using Unittests), experience in software engineering is a plus
Basic Linux skills
Familiarity with version control systems (e.g. Git, GitHub)
Good communication skills (German is a plus, very good English is a must)
Open to work closely and cooperatively in a friendly team :)

To apply

Send your application with documents (Current CV, Bachelor/Master transcript and letter of motivation) to Stephanie Käs: kaes@vision.rwth-aachen.de.
