Subject: 	[Members] [General] TU Graz: PhD Position in 3D Shape 
Retrieval and Analysis
Date: 	Mon, 16 Mar 2015 15:41:55 +0100
From: 	eurographics@eg.org
To: 	general@eg.org



*PhD Position in 3D Shape Retrieval and Analysis*

**

The position is available at the Institute of Computer Graphics and 
Knowledge Visualization at TU Graz

(see http://www.cgv.tugraz.at). The position is fully funded for three 
years and includes a one year

research exchange with Nanyang Technical University, Singapore within 
the joint PhD Program in Visual

Computing of the two Universities (see 
http://cospace.sce.ntu.edu.sg/joint_degree/TUG.htm).

*Research Focus and Environment*

Due to recent advances in 3D acquisition and modeling, increasingly 
large amounts of 3D shape data

become available in many application domains. Coping with large 3D shape 
data requires effective and

efficient techniques to support 3D searching, exploring, analyzing and 
processing tasks. Our research

group works on feature-based approaches for 3D shape retrieval including 
sketch- and example-based

methods; clustering and classification of shape repositories for 
annotation and visual exploration; and on

similarity-based methods for restoration of fragmented or incomplete shapes.

The successful candidate will contribute to the group’s research efforts 
by developing, applying and

evaluating novel feature-based shape analysis methods to support one or 
more of the above mentioned

problems. The methods to be researched are informed by new application 
needs in domains such

as Computer Aided Design and Digital Archeology. The researcher will 
collaborate with experts from

relevant application domains to gather requirements, experimental data, 
and perform joint evaluation.

Our research group offers a pleasant working atmosphere in a motivated, 
cooperative, and technically

very well equipped environment. We offer excellent professional and 
personal development possibilities,

including participation in interesting research projects, a foreign 
exchange program, and a range of industry

contacts. The group is part of the Visual Computing research cluster in 
Graz, offering an excellent

scientific environment. The city of Graz and the Austrian state of 
Styria offer exceptional quality of living.

*Requirements*

We are looking for a highly motivated member for our research team with 
a Master degree in Computer

Science or a related field. Candidates have a background in Visual 
Computing techniques and are motivated

to take on basic research challenges in the areas described above, and 
demonstrate the novelty

and effectiveness of their methods by experimental evaluation and 
application. Practical programming

skills in Java, C++ or other suitable language are required. Applicants 
are fluent in English and enjoy

collaborative work in an international environment.

*Contact and Application*

Please contact cgv@cgv.tugraz.at <mailto:cgv@cgv.tugraz.at> for further 
details on the position. To apply, please send your CV,

academic credentials and a letter of motivation by email or by postal 
mail to:

Graz University of Technology
