I am a senior applied scientist at Cruise Automation developing advanced perception technologies for autonomous cars. Before that, I was a senior perception engineer at Aptiv R&D-ing tracking and fusion systems for self-driving cars.
I also spend one year as a postdoctoral fellow at the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, where I worked with Prof. Simon Lucey on 3D vision and visual object tracking.
I finished my Ph.D. under supervision of Prof. Terence Sim at the School of Computing, National University of Singapore. During my Ph.D., I worked on different computer vision problems, including face analysis, visual object tracking and action recognition.
