Chief Technology Officer
DigitalBridge, digitalbridge.eu.
11/2012 – 03/2017
DigitalBridge is a start-up developing applications using computer vision and machine learning to help its customers improve their living spaces. Martin’s role was to drive technical and research strategy from conception through to deployment as part of a product. Research areas:
-
Machine learning driven image segmentation and boundary estimation in indoor scenes. Models developed include those based on convolutional neural networks and random forests.
-
3D vision. Estimating 3D structure of indoor scenes from single images, 3D reconstruction using mobile devices, point cloud processing.
PhD, Articulated Human Post Estimation and Tracking
University of Manchester
09/2008 – 09/2012
Research into performing human pose estimation from still images and videos. Focused on applying mixture of Gaussian processes to large pose estimation data sets. Throughout this research I have developed extensive experience in a range of machine learning techniques used for probabilisitic regression, classification, clustering and dynamical modelling. Application areas include upper body tracking for sign language recognition, human detection, image feature extraction and human motion modelling.
