SEED-SET: Scalable Evolving Experimental Design for System-level Ethical Testing

ICLR 2026poster

As autonomous systems such as drones, become increasingly deployed in high-stakes, human-centric domains, it is critical to evaluate the ethical alignment since failure to do so imposes imminent danger to human lives, and long term bias in decision-making. Automated ethical benchmarking of these sys…

Efficient Motion Planning for Manipulators with Control Barrier Function-Induced Neural Controller

ICRA 2024poster

Sampling-based motion planning methods for manipulators in crowded environments often suffer from expensive collision checking and high sampling complexity, which make them difficult to use in real time. To address this issue, we propose a new generalizable control barrier function (CBF)based steeri…

Cross Modality Knowledge Distillation for Robust Pedestrian Detection in Low Light and Adverse Weather Conditions

ICASSP 2023accepted

RGB-based pedestrian detection is a challenging task in low light and adverse weather conditions because image quality can degrade rather significantly. Including other modalities such as thermal and gated imaging sensors can, on the other hand, significantly improve the detection performance in the…
