Brief Bio

Andrés Bruhn received a diploma degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Mannheim, Mannheim, Germany, in 2001 and a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from Saarland University, Saabrücken, Germany, in 2006. After working as a postdoctoral researcher from 2006 to 2007, he currently holds the position of an assistant professor at the Mathematical Image Analysis Group at Saarland University, Saarbrücken, Germany. In 2009 he spent two months as a visiting reasearcher at the Universtiy of Las Palmas, Spain. His research interests include optical flow estimation, stereo reconstruction, diffusion filtering and fast numerical schemes for image processing and computer vision. Dr. Bruhn served on the programme committee of ECCV, ICCV, and CVPR and regularly reviews for all major computer vision journals. His publications received several awards, among them the 2004 Longuet-Higgins Best Paper Award of the European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV), the 2006 Olympus Prize of the German Pattern Recognition Society (DAGM), the 2006 Outstanding Dissertation Award of the German Society of Computer Science (GI), the Swiss Computer Science Society (SI), the Austrian Computer Society (OCG) and the German Chapters of the ACM (GChACM) as well as the 2007 Dr. Eduard Martin Prize of the Saarland University. Moreover, he was nominated as one of two national candidates for the 2008 Cor Baayen Award of the European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics (ERCIM).
