About

Intro

I am a robotics engineer who is interested in motion planning and machine learning for decision-making. To be detailed, I am fascinated with making better autonomous behaivors and better decision-making for real-world complicated systems. Also, I am very interested in practical implementations such as autonomous vehicles, robot manipulators, and humanoids.
