Patrik Huber

Dr. Patrik Huber is a Research Fellow affiliated with the Department of Computer Science at the University of York and a Visiting Academic Researcher at the Centre for Vision, Speech and Signal Processing at the University of Surrey. His research focuses on Computer Vision, Computer Graphics, and Machine Learning, with specialization in statistical 3D face models and metrically accurate 3D avatars from 2D inputs. He earned his PhD in Computer Vision from the University of Surrey and MSc in Computer Science from the University of Basel.

His research integrates classical computer vision techniques with deep learning approaches. Recent publication trends show strong emphasis on 3D face reconstruction, generative models for facial synthesis, neural surface reconstruction, and applications in biometric security. He founded 4dface Ltd, specializing in professional 3D face modeling solutions.

As Principal Investigator, Dr. Huber leads projects on neural implicit representations and multimodal face generation. His work involves significant industry collaboration and technology transfer through his startup venture.
