Overview

Research Internships at Microsoft provide a dynamic environment for research careers with a network of world-class research labs led by globally-recognized scientists and engineers, who pursue innovation in a range of scientific and technical disciplines to help solve complex challenges in diverse fields, including computing, healthcare, economics, and the environment.

Recent advances in AI have been driven in great part by developments in computer vision. However, geometric computer vision, a subarea of great importance to key applications such as autonomous driving, robotics, and augmented reality, has not benefited from this revolution - today, most problems in geometric computer vision are still solved through classical methods. In this project, we will explore how methods based on the formalism of geometric algebra can help in closing this gap. Specific topics include:

Geometric algebra methods for deep optical flow computation.
Direct application of deep learning in geometric algebra estimation.

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
