Angjoo Kanazawa

I will be starting as an Assistant Professor at UC Berkeley from Fall 2020.

I am a research scientist at Google NYC. Previously, I was a BAIR postdoc at UC Berkeley adviced by Jitendra Malik, Alexei A. Efros and Trevor Darrell.
I completed my PhD in CS at the University of Maryland, College Park with my advisor David Jacobs. Prior to UMD, I spent four years at NYU where I worked with Rob Fergus and completed my BA in Mathematics and Computer Science.

Since then I've had the pleasure to work with:

Peter Belhumeur at Columbia University
Google[x] self-driving car team
Manmohan Chandraker at NEC Labs in Cupertino
Michael Black at Max Planck Institute in Tübingen, Germany
