Francois Bernard Lauze is an Associate Professor at the Department of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen, specializing in the Image Analysis, Computational Modelling and Geometry section. His research bridges mathematical image analysis and geometric methods for shape analysis in medical imaging. His primary research interests include variational methods, partial differential equations, and Riemannian geometry applied to image inpainting, motion estimation, segmentation, and medical imaging. Recent work focuses on physics-integrated deformable registration, SE(3) group equivariant neural networks, and multi-view 3D reconstruction techniques. The trends in his publications highlight interdisciplinary approaches combining geometry, computer vision, and deep learning. Notable examples include locally orderless networks, SE(3) group convolutions for DWI segmentation, and RNb-NeuS for 3D reconstruction. He is affiliated with the Pioneer AI section at DIKU, which anchors foundational research in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and medical imaging. The section hosts the Applied Geometry lab and participates in major international conferences like MICCAI and CVPR.
