PhD Opportunity with Centre for Machine Vision in collaboration with Zenotech
There's an opportunity to apply for a funded full-time PhD in the Centre for Machine Vision (CMV), School of Engineering, UWE Bristol. This studentship, titled "Three-dimensional object detection and segmentation in point clouds in the context of aerospace CFD meshing" will be jointly funded by UWE Bristol and Zenotech Ltd.
The CMV is located within the Bristol Robotics Laboratory (BRL), a joint venture between UWE Bristol and University of Bristol. The CMV specialises in real-world applications of computer vision and machine learning for the realisation of working prototypes and demonstrators, with a strong emphasis on 3D imaging and analysis, data capture, and modelling. This studentship will also receive support from the world-leading aerodynamic and software development teams at Zenotech, such as relevant datasets for project case study, and general domain expertise in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) meshing.
This study will investigate feature-based registration of point clouds and deep-learning-based 3D object detection in point clouds, in order to automatically select and tune mesh criteria for every type of aerodynamic device together with local contexts of an aircraft’s geometry.
