Daniela Craciun is a formner member of the ViDOCK team. She is a Research Scientist in Applied Mathematics to Computer Vision and Robotics fields. She achieved her Ph. D. degree at Telecom ParisTech ENST along with a doctoral grant funded by the French Mapping Agency to work on 3D modeling of complex environments from active and passive 3D vision sensors. She joined the Robotics Center (CAOR) of the MINES ParisTech to work on 3D modeling from mobile mapping systems and the CNAM – iMATH - GBCM Lab to conduct research on 3D shape modeling and pattern recognition within the ERC project VIDOCK.
