3D Semantic Mapping and Navigation for Robot Task Planning
Ongoing 2025 – presentSemantic 3D maps that let robots find objects and plan where to go.

Localization & Mapping
SAMPLE TEXT. We study simultaneous localization and mapping for robots that operate in cluttered, changing environments. Our work covers sensor fusion, loop closure under perceptual aliasing, and maps that carry semantic meaning rather than geometry alone.
Semantic 3D maps that let robots find objects and plan where to go.
