Dr. S. (Serkan) Kartal

Profile

Dr. Serkan Kartal is a Postdoc researcher in the Geoscience & Remote Sensing Department at TU-Delft. He graduated from Cukurova University Computer Engineering (CuCeng) in 2010, and obtained his MSc in 2013 and PhD in 2017. Before coming to Delft, he spent his 4 years as Assistant Professor at CuCeng and 1 year as Postdoc researcher at Czech University of Life Sciences Prague.  

Research

Serkan’s research interests lay on the use of machine learning, especially computer vision algorithms, for developing novel algorithms to analyse real world data. He develops machine-learning methods to analyse various datasets such as 3D point clouds, RGB images, and numeric datasets. His research interests include, but are not limited to, analysis of point clouds data, semantic segmentation operations on RGB images, image processing and analysis of remote sensing data.
