Boundary domain between computer vision and graphics

Computer vision is a research field that gives computers the ability to "see" the world. Computer graphics, on the other hand, is a field in which computers "show" information to humans. Computer vision and graphics are adjacent fields, and various research topics are expanding at the boundary between them. I am particularly interested in 3D reconstruction, which virtualizes the shape, structure, and appearance of real objects from images. I am also interested in the generation and manipulation of 2D images and 3D spaces.

Computer vision for plant phenotyping

Plant phenotyping is a research field that focuses on acquiring and analyzing plant traits that are useful for efficient and high-throughput plant cultivation and breeding. In particular, recovering plant shapes and structures from images poses significant challenges to the field of computer vision due to the complex shape of plants. In particular, I focus on the technical component of computer vision in plant phenotyping, aiming to generate a digital twin of plants.
