Duygu Ceylan
Senior Research Scientist
London, UK
Duygu joined Adobe Research in November 2014. Her research interests include 3D capture, shape analysis, and machine learning.
She obtained her Ph.D. in 2014 from École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne under the supervision of Prof. Mark Pauly. Her Ph.D. work focuses on using computational shape understanding, specifically exploring symmetry priors, in the context of 3D reconstruction from images. More recently, she has been focusing on using machine learning techniques to infer and analyze 3D information from images and videos, focusing specifically on humans.

Adobe Researchers use puzzles to teach an AI model to retouch photos
Editing photos can be tricky, especially if a user isn’t familiar with all their editing tools. Adobe Researchers have developed a new AI model that spots what a user might want to fix, explains each step, and lets users choose which edits to make. Learn more about this new research!
