Ayush Tewari ayusht@mit.edu I am a postdoctoral researcher at MIT CSAIL with Bill Freeman and Josh Tenenbaum. Previously, I completed my Ph.D. at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics with Christian Theobalt. I received an Otto Hahn Medal from the Max Planck Society for my PhD. My research develops methods for perceiving and recreating the 3D structure of the visual world from sparse image observations in a self-supervised manner. Check out some recent talks for an overview. [Google Scholar] [CV] [Publications] [Talks]
