  Assistant Research Scientist

  In Herta, I worked conducting research on tracking algorithms. During my internship, I explored all phases of research, starting with the collection and annotation of data. Then, I delved into state-of-the-art algorithms and implemented them with python. Finally, I developed and validated a new tracking algorithm, which achieved very good results. We also wrote a paper with the results and submitted it to a computer vision conference.
