Hello! I am currently a junior in Computer Science with a minor in Business at UIUC. My current project in the lab focuses on the seamless integration of current motion planning algorithms and trajectory/intent prediction. This semester, my team and I have been working towards writing a literature survey that identifies where current integrations of these methods fall short, which we hope to have completed by next semester.
Current Project - Prediction + Planning
For effective collaboration, robots must do more than just react, they need to anticipate. This requires inferring unobservable human intentions and predicting future actions. Anticipatory behavior is the next frontier in fluent human robot collaboration (HRC), moving from reactive to proactive robots. This project aims to synthesize current prediction methods with core motion planning methods, as current prediction methods such as Bayesian methods, Markov Models, and Supervised Deep Learning are no longer sufficient. We aim to solve those utilizing planning methods.
