Teaching

Selected Topics in Computer Vision, Computer Science Predoctoral school at EPFL. I mostly talk about 3D tracking and related stuff (robust numerical optimization, Kalman and particle filters, Bayesian tracking, ...)

I maintain the Student projects at CVlab web page, where I propose several projects.

Cours de programmation en C et C++, Section Sciences et Technologies du Vivant.
