Hi! I'm Andre

I'm an ECE PhD student at UIUC.
I'm interested in field robotics, especially developing human-centered, learning-based navigation and perception systems for mobile field robots.
If you'd like to chat, please feel free to reach out; I'm always open to collaborating and chatting about research!

CHUNGUS

We introduce a HiL traversability prediction method that can rapidly learn during robot deployment by querying a human for sparse, quickly-provided annotations as-needed

W-RIZZ

We introduce a weakly-supervised method for relative traversability estimation to overcome the limitations of existing self-supervised and strongly-supervised methods

ROAR

We introduce a novel occlusion-aware recurrent neural network architecture for field robot navigation that can provide accurate predictions even during sensor occlusion
