I am a researcher in machine learning and robotics with a long-term vision of building human-level robot intelligence. My research focuses on embodied AI that combines learning with structure and reasoning. My recent works are on neural networks that encode classic robot algorithms in order to learn partially observable planning, visual navigation, localization, and mapping tasks.
Interests: reinforcement learning, neural networks, embodied AI, planning, robot control, visual navigation.
