About
Multisensory Robot Learning
I am a PhD researcher in the Interactive Robot Perception & Learning (PEARL) Lab at TU Darmstadt, where I joined in August 2023, advised by Prof. Georgia Chalvatzaki.
My research focuses on multisensory robot learning — pretraining on vision, force, and proprioception to enable efficient real-world reinforcement learning. It also spans, combining tactile sensors that operate at different spatial and temporal resolutions to solve complex tasks through imitation learning, as well as collecting and learning from vision-tactile-audio data. The goal is to advance robots' perception of the world to solve complex manipulation tasks.
I hold master's degrees in Computational Engineering and Autonomous Systems from the Technical University of Darmstadt, specializing in robotics and artificial intelligence. Previously, I completed my B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering.
