Christian Leistner

Short CV

Christian Leistner received a M.Sc. in Telematics (Computer Science & Electrical Engineering) in 2006 and a PhD in 2010, both from Graz University of Technology. His thesis supervisor was Prof. Horst Bischof. He is currently a research and teaching assistant at the Institute for Computer Graphics and Vision at Graz University of Technology.

Research

My research focuses on machine learning methods, especially on-line and semi-supervised algorithms and their applications in computer vision such as object categorization, detection and tracking.

• Semi-supervised On-line Boosting for Robust Tracking

News

• We got two papers accepted at ECCV (1 oral and 1 poster)
• Together with my colleagues, we got 3 papers accepted at this year's CVPR 2010
• Amir Saffari, Horst Bischof and I organize a CVPR 2010 tutorial on Semi-Supervised Learning in Vision

Teaching

• Computer Vision 1 and Computer Vision 2 (joint Web-Page with Computergrafik 1 and Computergrafik 2)

Code

For most of the algorithms we published I am happy to share code. In future, I plan to put some released versions here online. Until then, contact me in case you are interested in specific algorithms.
