Biography
[This is an archived version, check out the links section for up-to-date information]
I am currently a postdoc fellow at the
Robotics Institute,
Carnegie Mellon University.
I collaborate with
Tony
Stentz and
Drew
Bagnell.
I develop computer vision and machine learning algorithms for
robotic manipulation.
My goal is to enable machines to intelligently interpret visual
information in our everyday environments. This will enable exciting
applications such as home robotics, space exploration, flexible
manafacturing, autonomous driving, video understanding, and search &
rescue robotics.
I received my PhD and MSc degrees in 2011 and 2008 from the
University of Massachusetts Amherst, focusing on perception and
learning for autonomous manipulation.
In 2004 I graduated with a BSc
from Tel-Aviv University (Israel), double-majoring in computer
science and electrical engineering.
