Sina Mokhtarzadeh Azar

I'm a PhD student in the Computer Vision Group at the University of Bonn working on Controllable Video Generation under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Jürgen Gall. Previously, I was a Research Assistant in the Computer Vision Lab at the University of Würzburg, where I worked with Prof. Dr. Radu Timofte .

I got my Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence from Amirkabir University of Technology where I worked on Group Activity Recognition under the supervision of Dr. Ahmad Nickabadi. I did my Bachelor's in Computer Engineering at the same university.

Research

I'm generally interested in Video Generation and Understanding. Recently, my research is focused mostly on investigating various ways of Controlling Video Generation models.
