Chieh-Chih Wang

I successfully defended my thesis on 3/31/2004 after 4.7 years at the Robotics Institute (RI), part of the School of Computer Science (SCS) at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU).
After graduation, joined the faculty at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Autonomous Systems and the Australian Centre for Field Robotics (ACFR) at the University of Sydney. Please visit my new homepage.

Research [More]

I am interested in a variety of computer vision, machine learning and robotics problems, including uncertainty and validation of image registration methods, spatio-temporal data fusion, automatically mapping of very large environments, object recognition and underwater robotics. Currently my research focuses on simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) with detection and tracking of moving objects (DATMO) problems.
Before joining Carnegie Mellon University, I had worked on "Modeling and Control of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles" in National Taiwan University for five years.
