Martijn Courteaux

PhD Student

Martijn is working as a PhD student at IDLAB-MEDIA. He obtained his degree in MSc in Computer Science in 2018, at the University of Ghent. The topic of his doctoral research is about leveraging mixture models to model and compress immersive light field scenes with high focus on real-time aspects and functionality such as streamability, 6-degrees-of-freedom interactivity, compression, and lightweight decoding. Martijn has a strong interest in high-quality and high-performance code. Other topics of interest are linear algebra, neural networks, image processing, GPU programming.

Favourite software technologies: C++, SDL2, Dear ImGui, Halide, bgfx. Reasonably likes Python and TensorFlow.
