Idiap Research Institute and the School of Engineering at EPFL invite applications for the directorship of Idiap. The successful candidate will also hold a faculty position as full professor at EPFL School of Engineering.
Computational Bioimaging
The technique of computational imaging and biomedical image analysis lies at the heart of the group’s imaging research. Research areas of this group include developing algorithms for image deconvolution and super-resolution in optical microscopy, three-dimensional tomography reconstruction from projections, and, more generally, combining unusual sensing devices and approaches with computational methods to produce images ideally-suited for the observation and quantification of complex and live biological systems.

During their master’s thesis at Idiap, Rémi Clerc developed a new software to process photos and generate 3D pictures with less data. The aim was to regroup several codes that can generate an image dataset, train and test transformed pictures and make those models run on a microcomputer. The result is now freely available on Github.
Always observe what’s smaller while maintaining the highest image quality possible. This requires ever more powerful microscopes, but computational methods can also do it. This is the subject of the thesis that Olivia Mariani successfully defended.
Christian Jaques, a researcher in the Idiap’s Computational Bioimaging Group and PhD student in electrical engineering at EPFL was awarded the Best Student Paper Award at the latest IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging.
Adrian Shajkofci, a PhD student in the Computational Bioimaging Group, co-advised by Michael Liebling and François Fleuret received a "Best Student Paper Award" at the 25th IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP), on October 9th 2018. This event is the world's largest and most comprehensive technical conference focused on image and video processing and computer vision. The 2018 theme was "Imaging beyond imagination".
