Gerard Pons-Moll is a Professor at the University of Tübingen, endowed by the Carl Zeiss Foundation, and heads the Emmy Noether independent research group 'Real Virtual Humans'. He is a core faculty member at the Tübingen AI Center, a senior researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics (MPII), and faculty at the International Max Planck Research School for Intelligent Systems (IMPRS-IS) and the Saarland Informatics Campus. His research focuses on computer vision, graphics, and machine learning, particularly in creating virtual human models and analyzing human motion from video and sensor data. Education: PhD (with distinction) in 2014 from Leibniz University of Hannover, Master's in Telecommunications Engineering (Northeastern University, 2008), and B.S./M.Sc. in Telecommunications Engineering from the Technical University of Catalonia (2002–2008). Research Interests: 3D human modeling, pose estimation, human-object interaction, and applications in industry and research. His work emphasizes real-world applications like virtual avatars and motion capture systems. Awards: Emmy Noether Grant (2018), German Pattern Recognition Award (2019), Google Faculty Research Award (2019), and multiple best paper awards at top conferences (BMVC’13, Eurographics’17, 3DV'18, CVPR'20). Advising & Grants: Served as program chair of 3DV 2021, area chair for ECCV, CVPR, and IJCAI. Active in reviewing for DFG, ANR, and ISF. Supervises research in areas like neural rendering frameworks (Blendify) and synthetic data generation (STAGE). Labs/Teams: Leads the Emmy Noether group and collaborates with MPII, Tübingen AI Center, and IMPRS-IS on projects like XNect (real-time 3D motion capture) and Human 3Diffusion (avatar creation).
