Research topics and Staff

Aim of the group is the development of novel automatic imaging techniques and quantitative image processing methods. Among the present research topics are :
  

  • Imaging techniques for mass screening of root and leaf growth

Frank Gilmer
Hanno Scharr

  • Dynamic 3d surface reconstruction from multi-camera image sequences

Bernd Biskup
Hanno Scharr
Tobias Schuchert

  • Regularization and noise reduction in multi-channel image data

Hanno Scharr
Uwe Rascher

  • High accuracy parameter estimation in partial differential equations

Mathematical Technical Assistants and Trainees:

Andreas Fischbach Georg Dreissen Sabine Briem
Kathrin Cloos André Erler Torge Herber
Daniel Fäuster    

While all these projects are driven by plant growth quantification, the obtained results are applicable to a wide class of image processing problems.


Third Party Funds

DFG-Project "LOCOMOTOR" Nonlinearanalysis of multi-dimensional signals:
LOcal adaptive estimation of COmplex MOTion and ORientation patterns. This is a joint project together with  Frankfurt,  Heidelberg and  Lübeck Universities in the context of DFG Schwerpunktprogramm 1114  "Mathematical methods for time series analysis and digital image processing".
