Hailin Jin
Sr. Research Scientist

I am a researcher at Adobe Systems, Incorporated. I received my Master of Science and Doctor of Science degrees in Electrical Engineering from Washington University in Saint Louis in 2000 and 2003 repectively. Between fall 2003 and fall 2004, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Computer Science Department, University of California at Los Angeles.

My areas of research interests include image stitching, 3D reconstruction, structure and motion estimation, level set methods, and image-based modeling and rendering.
