I am a researcher and engineer in robotics, currently pursuing my PhD in Electrical Engineering at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), Brussels, Belgium, under the supervision of Prof. Bram Vanderborght, Prof. Adrian Munteanu, and Dr. Bryan Convens. My work is perception-aware control with reinforcement learning to achieve safe and efficient control and navigation policies for robots. Previously I worked as autonomous driving algorithm engineer, and developed software and algorithms for planning and control of autonomous cars and robots. I am interested in control and navigation algorithms for aerial and mobile robots, reinforcement learning for control and planning, and perception-aware control of autonomous robots. Also, I love robot software development with C/C++, ROS/ROS2, and Isaac Gym/Isaac Sim simulators for RL training! Email / CV / LinkedIn / GitHub / Google Scholar / Homepage@VUB |
