Graphics and Media Lab

Computer vision research group is a part of Graphics & Media Lab , located at Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics Department, Lomonosov Moscow State University. It consists of 3 PhD, 7 PhD students and 18 undegraduate students. We carry out research in several areas of computer vision, including video segmentation, video surveillance, image recognition for mobile mapping platforms and mobile devices, 3D reconstruction. We widely use machine learning techniques, including graphical models in particular. The head of the group is Anton Konushin, PhD .

We strongly encourage our undegraduate students to actively participate in research projects and to co-author papers to both Russian and international conferences. Our group is also involved in teaching process in Lomonosov Moscow State University.

Ongoing projects

• Computer vision collaborative research in Russia. Project is supported by Microsoft Research. The main research topics include video segmantation and matting, text detection in unconstraint images, 3D point cloud recognition with inference machines.
• Video surveillance . Project is supported by grants from Russian fund of basic research (RFBR) and Federal target program "Scientific personel of innovative Russia in 2009-2013". Main research topics are person tracking, gender and age classification, video indexing and content-based retrieval from video archives.
• Image and 3D point cloud recognition for mobile mapping platforms. Project is supported by company "Mobile mapping technologies"
