Hi! I am a PhD student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at University of Waterloo, advised by Yash Vardhan Pant and Sebastian Fischmeister.
Following my Master’s degree from Texas A&M University, I joined LG Electronics, where I developed computer vision algorithms for mobile cameras. I then worked as a volunteer Research Assistant at the University of Toronto under Prof. Dimitrios Hatzinakos, where I shifted my focus toward machine learning algorithms. After that, I joined AMD as a Research Engineer, developing machine learning algorithms for computer vision, before starting my PhD.
Research
My research focuses on Driver Representation Learning and Traffic Scenario Generation. My recent works explore:
