Ayce Idil Aytekin
I am a first-year PhD student at Max Planck Institute for Informatics, Visual Computing and Artificial Intelligence Department.
My research focuses on hand-object interaction and 3D scene understanding.
I specifically aim to leverage large vision-language models and incorporate physics to advance these fields.
I have also worked on physics-based 3D human pose estimation, diffusion model efficiency, and medical imaging.
Ultimately, I hope to make practical contributions to integrating robots into our daily lives.
