Pedro Hermosilla, Dr.

Pedro Hermosilla Casajus obtained his PhD in Computing from the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya in 2017. In September 2017 he joined the Visual Computing group in Ulm as a PostDoc, where he is currently working on Point Cloud processing and Machine Learning techniques applied to Computer Vision and Computer Graphics problems. He has left the research group in Dezember 2022 to persue his accademic carrier at the Institute of Visual Computing and Human-Centered Technology, TU Vienna (2022).
