Astra-vision
Computer vision group of Astra Team, Inria Paris
Oct. 2023
We study 2D vision and 3D perception for robust scene understanding. Our research focuses on relaxing the use of abundant data and supervision, stepping towards weak-/un-supervised vision algorithms, while providing models that are more interpretable. We primarily address autonomous driving but our research expands to a variety of indoor and outdoor applications.
Research axes
Learning with less supervision
Vision in complex conditions
3D scene understanding
