Research interests

I am interested in a variety of computer vision and robotics problems, including uncertainty and validation of image registration methods, spatio-temporal data fusion, automatically mapping of very large environments, and object recognition. Currently my research focuses on simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) with detection and tracking of moving objects (DATMO) problems.

Research interest keywords

3-D perception, computer vision, control, field robotics, human-computer interaction, intelligent transportation, machine learning, mobile robots, range data, sensor fusion, and visual tracking

Additional Interests and Responsibilities

I am maintaining the CMU/VASC Image Database.

Past Labs & Groups

NavLab - Autonomous Vehicles and Driver Assistance

Past Projects

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping with Detection, Tracking, and Classification of Moving Objects - We are developing the algorithms to solve Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and Detection, Tracking and Classification of Moving Objects (DTCMO) problems for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Transit Bus Collision Warning Systems - Research and integration of side and front collision warning systems for transit buses.
