I am an AI/ML Engineer at GHELIA INC. and am involved in AI/ML related work.

Before that, I was an Assistant Professor at the Information Somatics Lab at the University of Tokyo where I participated in research on human augmentation.

For my Ph.D., I conducted research in the Computer Integrated Manufacturing Lab and Autonomous Systems and Biomechatronics Lab in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Toronto under the co-supervision of Prof. Beno Benhabib and Prof. Goldie Nejat. My Ph.D. thesis focused on search planning in wilderness search and rescue missions.

My research interests include but are not limited to: artificial intelligence, machine learning, optimization, operations research, probabilistic reasoning, computer vision, human-robot/human-computer interaction/integration, human augmentation, multi-agent systems, swarm robotics, augmented/virtual reality, search and rescue robotics, path planning, sensor networks.
