Merhaba! Welcome to my research portfolio. I’m a second-year Ph.D. student at the University of Michigan, working with Dr. Katie Skinner at the Field Robotics Group.
I’m interested in applying probabilistic learning methods for computer vision and robotics to tasks such as state estimation, mapping, and decision-making in challenging environments.
I previously worked at iRobot, and have interned at the University of Washington Applied Physics Lab as a visiting researcher, advised by Dr. Aaron Marburg.
Below are papers and projects that I’ve worked on.
