Brown CS is happy to announce that with the anticipated approval of Brown University’s Corporation and effective as of July 1, 2026, Srinath Sridhar has been promoted to Associate Professor with tenure.
Named the John E. Savage Assistant Professor in Computer Science last year, Srinath joined the Brown CS faculty in 2020 after working as a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University. His doctorate, advised by Christian Theobalt and Antti Oulasvirta, is from the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, and he holds an M.S.E. in Electrical Engineering: Systems from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and a B.E. in Geoinformatics from the College of Engineering Guindy, Anna University, Chennai, India.
Srinath leads the Interactive 3D Vision and Learning Lab (IVL), part of Brown Visual Computing, which works on 3D computer vision and artificial intelligence. They build foundational methods for 3D spatiotemporal (4D) visual understanding of the world, including objects in it, humans in motion, and human-object interactions. Their research has broad applications in areas such as robotics, mixed reality, and human-computer interaction.
Srinath’s latest research includes “PackUV: Packed Gaussian UV Maps for 4D Volumetric Video”, “LLaMo: Scaling Pretrained Language Models for Unified Motion Understanding and Generation with Continuous Autoregressive Tokens”, and “GenHSI: Controllable Generation of Human-Scene Interaction Videos”. His teaching includes CSCI 1430 Introduction to Computer Vision, CSCI 2952-K Topics in 3D Computer Vision and Machine Learning, and CSCI 2952-O A Practical Introduction to Advanced 3D Robot Perception.
Most recently, Srinath was a plenary keynote speaker at the Indian Conference on Computer Vision, Graphics and Image Processing (ICVGIP), and has given invited talks at a wide range of academic and industry labs. His latest service to the scientific community includes serving as Area Chair for CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, and SIGGRAPH Asia as well as Grant Panelist/Reviewer for NSF and the Israel Science Foundation.
Srinath’s recent accolades include an NSF CAREER Award, a WACV Best Student Paper Award (advisee: Rahul Sajnani), receiving Brown’s Judith H. Zern 1964 Endowed Teaching Fund for course development, and being the only recipient worldwide in the augmented/virtual reality category for the Google Research Scholar Award in 2021.
