Deep Learning

Learning representations that support geometric reasoning.

Learning with geometry in mind

Deep learning is one of my core research interests, alongside geometric perception and uncertainty quantification. I am interested in how learned representations can support perception systems that work across different kinds of sensor observations.

The broader motivation is to connect flexible, data-driven representations with the geometric structure of the physical world.

Questions I want to explore

  • How can learned representations retain information that matters for 3D geometric reasoning?
  • Which properties of a representation can transfer across sensing modalities?
  • How can learning and geometric estimation complement each other when observations are imperfect?

Part of a larger perception system

Learning is closely connected to both geometric perception and uncertainty quantification. My interest is in their intersection: representations that are useful for geometry, and estimates whose reliability can be understood.
