嘉宾介绍
Ji Zhang
卡内基梅隆大学
系统科学家
Ji Zhang's research interests are in robotic navigation, spanning localization, mapping, planning, and exploration. His early work on Lidar Odometry and Mapping (LOAM) and the succeeding work leveraging range, vision, and inertial sensing ignited real-time 3D Lidar SLAM. His work ranked #1 on the odometry leaderboard of KITTI Vision Benchmark between 2014 and 2021. He founded Kaarta, Inc, a CMU spin-off commercializing 3D mapping & modeling technologies, and stayed with the company for 4 years as chief scientist. In late 2019, He rejoined CMU as a faculty member and started leading the development of a series of autonomous navigation algorithms. The complete navigation system brought CMU-OSU Team a "Most Sectors Explored Award" on DARPA Subterranean Challenge. He currently holds another role at the National Robotics Engineering Center at CMU and leads a few serious projects.
Wenshan Wang
卡内基梅隆大学
系统科学家
Wenshan Wang is a Systems Scientist at the Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University. She received her PhD degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Her research interests are applying machine learning to robotic problems and improving the robustness and intelligence of autonomous systems. Her work on off-road driving, autonomous aerial filming, visual SLAM, has pushed the limit of autonomous robots in real-world challenging environments. She organized and hosted a series of workshops about pushing robots' capability in challenging environments, including CVPR 2020 SLAM workshop, ICCV 2023 robot learning workshop, and ICRA 2024 off-road driving workshop. Dr. Wang was a research intern at MSRA in 2017 in the System group.
