Excerpt from Wikipedia
Felix Heide is a German-born computer scientist known for his work in the fields of computational imaging, computer vision, computer graphics and deep learning. He is an assistant professor at Princeton University and was the head of the Computational Imaging Lab. He serves as Head of Artificial Intelligence at Torc Robotics. Heide co-founded Algolux, a startup in computer vision technology for self-driving vehicles, which later merged with Torc Robotics.
Heide completed his undergraduate and Master’s degree in computer science at the University of Siegen, where he graduated summa cum laude. In 2016, he received his PhD from the University of British Columbia under the advisement of Professor Wolfgang Heidrich. His doctoral dissertation won the Alain Fournier PhD Dissertation Award for the best Canadian PhD dissertation in computer graphics and the ACM SIGGRAPH outstanding doctoral dissertation award for the best PhD dissertation in computer graphics and interactive techniques.
