Tanushree Banerjee

Tanushree Banerjee (pronouns: she/her/hers) is a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Maryland, College Park, under Prof. Matthias Zwicker, where she has been awarded a Dean's Fellowship. Tanushree’s research lies at the intersection of computer vision, computer graphics, and deep learning. She is particularly interested in leveraging generative priors for generalizable 3D perception and reframing perception as an inverse generation problem.

Previously, Tanushree graduated magna cum laude from Princeton University with a BSE in Computer Science. She conducted her senior thesis research under Prof. Felix Heide in the Princeton Computational Imaging Lab on explainable 3D perception via inverse generation, for which she received the Outstanding Computer Science Senior Thesis Prize.

Earlier in her undergraduate studies, Tanushree worked under Prof. Karthik Narasimhan in the Princeton Natural Language Processing Group and Prof. Olga Russakovsky in the Princeton Visual AI Lab.
