As a computer scientist, I strive to understand visual perception and build machines that can see. To do so, I leverage tools from differential geometry and algebraic topology, in conjunction with deep neural networks. My research focuses on:
- 3D Computer Vision
- 3D/4D Generative Priors
- Geometric/Topological Deep Learning
- Statistical and Topological Learning Theory
- Quantum Computer Vision
As a science advocate, I am committed to breaking down barriers to education, making knowledge accessible to all—especially those from underrepresented and underprivileged communities. Through initiatives like Bilimler Koyu and Nesin Maths Village, I actively contribute to this mission. I envision the possibility of an alternative, transformative academia. #baskabirakademimumkun
As an entrepreneur, I have co-founded multiple startups, including BeFunky, an online photo editing platform that empowers creativity worldwide.
As a music aficionado, I am immersed into drums & percussion. I particularly appreciate blues, jazz, funk as well as folk, ethnic and experimental forms of rhythm and music holistically.
