Featured Story
New algorithm could enable fast, nimble drones for time-critical operations such as search and rescue.
I'm interested in robotics and control theory, and in particular, the applications of probability theory, stochastic processes, stochastic geometry, formal methods, and optimization for the design and analysis of high-performance cyber-physical systems.
