Robby Tan

Researcher


I am a research scientist at National ICT Australia and an adjunct research fellow at the Australian National University, working with Prof. Richard Hartley. Prior joining to NICTA (April 2005) I was a research scientist at Japan Science and Technology, and a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Tokyo, under the supervision of Prof. Katsushi Ikeuchi.

My research interests are in the areas of computer vision, particularly in the physics-based approaches. Besides, I also have strong interests in computer graphics and machine learning.
