Jan Ackermann

Hello there! I am a master's student at ETH Zurich, specializing in the intersection of Vision, Graphics, and Deep Learning. Currently, I have the privilege of visiting Gordon Wetzstein's lab at Stanford University, where I am fortunate to be supervised by Guandao Yang.
Prior to this, I completed an internship at Google with Thabo Beeler's group and spent time as a visiting student at Peking University, working under Liwei Wang. At ETH Zurich, I completed my semester thesis with Christos Sakaridis. I earned my bachelor's degree from RWTH Aachen University, where I wrote my bachelor's thesis under the guidance of Leif Kobbelt.
Outside of research (but still cs), I really enjoy coding. During university, I had a great time exploring competitive programming, competing alongside my friends Vincent de Bakker, Lennart Ferlemann, and Viktor Körner as team ''r/wth''. I have also had the opportunity to apply my software engineering skills in large-scale projects during internships at Amazon AGI, Google Gemini, and Optiver D1.

Lecture Recommendations

I have thoroughly enjoyed the following lectures and highly recommend them to anyone interested in these fields. While some are specific to the universities I have attended, others are accessible online. (And yes, I have heard multiple lectures on the same topics!)
