Field notes

The research index spans heavy-duty and off-road vehicle control, multi-agent negotiation, stochastic model-predictive control, autonomous racing, and mobile manipulation. One project uses language-model reasoning alongside rule-based safety checks for driving decisions, while another applies Gaussian-process dynamics learning to real vehicles in changing, low-friction conditions. The page also identifies the author’s roles across LoopX, Reel-In Robotics, NIO, SAIC Motor, the University of Waterloo, and Canada’s National Research Council.
