Prof. Luc Van Gool

Luc Van Gool is a full professor for Computer Vision at ETH Zurich and the KU Leuven. He leads research and teaches at both places.

He has authored over 300 papers. Luc Van Gool has been a program committee member of several, major computer vision conferences (e.g. Program Chair ICCV'05, Beijing, General Chair of ICCV'11, Barcelona, and of ECCV'14, Zurich). His main interests include 3D reconstruction and modeling, object recognition, and autonomous driving.

He received several Best Paper awards (eg. David Marr Prize '98, Best Paper CVPR'07). He was the holder of an ERC Advanced Grant (VarCity). Currently, he leads computer vision research for autonomous driving in the context of the Toyota TRACE labs in Leuven and at ETH.


Dr. Christos Sakaridis

Christos Sakaridis is a Postdoctoral Researcher at Computer Vision Lab, ETH Zurich. Since 2021, he is the Principal Engineer in TRACE-Zurich, leading the project team in developing computer vision technologies for autonomous cars.

His broad research fields are Computer Vision and Machine Learning. The focus of his research is on high-level visual perception, involving adverse visual conditions, domain adaptation, semantic segmentation, depth estimation, object detection, synthetic data generation, and fusion of multiple sensors including lidar, radar and event cameras, with emphasis on their application to autonomous cars and robots.

Christos obtained his PhD in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology from ETH Zurich in June 2021, working at Computer Vision Lab and supervised by Prof. Luc Van Gool. Prior to joining Computer Vision Lab, he received his MSc in Computer Science from ETH Zurich in 2016 and his Diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering from National Technical University of Athens in 2014, conducting his Diploma thesis at CVSP Group under the supervision of Prof. Petros Maragos.


Luigi Piccinelli

Luigi is currently a PhD student at ETH Zurich, supervised by Professor Luc Van Gool. The topic of his research is 3D perception, with emphasis on monocular images and videos.

Luigi received the BSc in Automation Enngineering from University of Bologna in 2019, while the MSc in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology from ETH Zurich, in 2019 and 2022, respectively. Before joining TRACE in 2022, Luigi worked on Domain Adaptation applied to medical image analysis and to human pose estimation.


Siyuan Li

Siyuan Li, is a PhD student at Computer Vision Laboratory, ETH Zurich, Switzerland, supervised by Dr. Martin Danelljan and Prof. Luc Van Gool. Siyuan is interested in in computer vision, machine learning, and their applications on autonomous driving and robotics.


Tim Brödermann

Tim Broedermann is a PhD candidate at ETH Zurich. His current research focuses on multi-sensor scene understanding in adverse weather conditions. Specifically, he works on multi-modal fusion for robust semantic understanding of driving scenes. Before joining the Computer Vision Lab, Tim recieved an MSc in "Robotics, Systems and Control" and a BSc in "Mechanical Engineering" at ETH Zurich.
