Perception engineer working on object detection and multi object tracking from different sensors modalities delivering high quality and performant C++ code. Specifically, I work on PointCloud clustering and box fusion, as well as Deep learning based LiDAR 3D Object Detection, for use in a tracking module based on Bayesian Estimation and Kalman Filter.Previously worked on the Navigation stack for vehicle motion (in particular in human motion prediction) and mission planning.
