Welcome!

I am interested in a variety of machine perception, machine learning and robotics problems, including spatio-temporal data fusion, object & activity recognition, planning & control under uncertainty, automatically mapping of very large environments, safe driving and field robotics. I lead the Robot Perception and Learning Lab. Check out our lab blog. Directions for visitors. (Maps: JPG, PDF) Information for prospective students (FAQ): We are looking for both excellent graduate and undergraduate students with enthusiasm. If you are interested in our research and would like to join our lab, please send email to me with your resume and related materials.
