Gedas Bertasius

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

Prior to joining UNC, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Facebook AI where I worked with Lorenzo Torresani. Before that, I completed my Ph.D. at the University of Pennsylvania with Jianbo Shi. I did my undergraduate studies at Dartmouth College.

Research Interests

My research interests are in computer vision and machine learning. Specifically, I'm interested in the topics of video understanding, human behavior modeling, multi-modal deep learning, and transfer learning. I'm also passionate about using computer vision for developing advanced basketball analytics tools.
