Research Interests
I have a broad range of theoretical and practical interests. On the theoretical side I am interested generally in computer vision and machine learning. More specifically I am interested in perception using novel types of sensors (asynchronous/neuromorphic vision, event cameras, multi-spectral sensing, raman spectrometers, etc), reinforcement learning and autonomous behaviours.
I am also interested in machine learning "meta-problems" such as explainable AI, privacy and fairness in AI, security/resilience of AI systems and federated learning.
I apply these theoretical interests in a range of application domains including perception and autonomy in robotics (navigation, planning, manipulation, obstacle avoidance), as well as various space-based applications (space-situational awareness, autonomous on-orbit assembly, GNC) and applications in the autonomous vehicles and creative industries.
