I am a Ph. D. student in the Department of Computer Science at the UIUC (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign).

My research advisor is Prof. Eyal Amir.

 

Research Interest

I am interested in general topics of A.I. and Robotics. The topics include the Cognitive Robotics, Common Sense Reasoning, Machine Learning, Computational Linguistics and Robot Vision.

 

My current research is controlling a robotic arm with a larger architecture for intelligent behavior. In the perspective of the cognitive architecture, I want to improve the architecture by incorporating the probabilistic units for low level sensors and propositional units for high level decision.
