Songyou Peng (彭崧猷)

I am a Senior Researcher/Postdoc at ETH Zurich, and also an incoming Research Sicentist at Google Research.

I received my PhD from ETH Zurich and Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems under the supervision of Marc Pollefeys and Andreas Geiger.

I was a research intern at Google Research with Tom Funkhouser, Meta Reality Labs Research with Michael Zollhoefer, Technical University of Munich with Daniel Cremers, and INRIA with Peter Sturm. I completed an Erasmus Mundus Masters in Computer Vision and Robotics (VIBOT) with distinction, and a Bachelors in Automation at Xi'an Jiaotong University.

Technical Demo. A deep Siamese-like network is introduced to predict one's Big-Five personality and arousal-valence emotion from one portrait photo.

A novel depth super-resolution approach for RGB-D sensors is presented.

This paper a part of my master thesis, and subsumed by our TPAMI paper.
