Computer Graphics Laboratory

Barbara Solenthaler

I am a senior research scientist at the Computer Graphics Laboratory at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, where I am heading the group on Simulation and Animation. I am also affiliated with the Institute for Advanced Study at the Technical University of Munich, where I hold a Hans Fischer Fellowship awarded by the Siemens AG. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Zurich. My research focuses on physics simulations and animations for computer graphics. I am particularly interested in methods for efficient, robust and artist-controllable simulations, and use data-driven techniques to transform and simplify workflows. I regularly serve on technical program committees of major graphics conferences including ACM SIGGRAPH, Eurographics and ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Symposium on Computer Animation (SCA), and was one of the conference chairs of the ACM SIGGRAPH / Eurographics Symposium on Computer Animation 2016. I am also appointed as an Associate Editor of Computer Graphics Forum (CGF). I am a co-founder of Apagom AG that provides a real-time fluid engine using machine learning.

We are always looking for Master students, PhD students and Postdocs for research projects in physically-based simulation and modeling and applied machine learning. Please contact me if you are interested!
