Ryota Maeda / 前田 涼汰

Postdoctoral Researcher
Computational Imaging Group (PI: Prof. Seung-Hwan Baek)
POSTECH

My research interests include computer vision, computer graphics, and computational imaging. I explore next-generation imaging systems by co-designing optical hardware and computational algorithms to capture and analyze rich visual information.

I received my Ph.D. in Engineering from University of Hyogo in 2026 under the supervision of Prof. Shinsaku Hiura.
