Wei Cao 曹 巍

I'm a PhD student at Bosch Center for Artificial Intelligence (BCAI), where I work on computer vision and autonomous driving.

I had the privilege of spending my high school years at High School Affiliated to Nanjing Normal University. My academic journey then took me to the Technical University of Munich (TUM), where I spent five and a half years immersed in an enriching environment, earning both my bachelor's and master's degrees. My master's thesis was supervised by Jiapeng Tang and Prof. Matthias Nießner in the Visual Computing & Artificial Intelligence Group.

I've spent great time at Visual Computing Group, 2012 Lab, FBK, and BMW, working with exceptional researchers.
