Long Nguyen
PhD Candidate · University of Tübingen · KE:SAI
I am a research assistant at KE:SAI and the Autonomous Vision Group at the University of Tübingen, advised by Prof. Dr. Andreas Geiger and Dr. Kashyap Chitta.
My research focuses on end-to-end driving policies, which learn perception and planning jointly from raw sensor data. I am guided by two questions:
- How to make a policy drive better?
- How do we make that progress measurable and reproducible?
Through my training in the Autonomous Vision Group, where I am lucky to learn from people who have shaped how the field evaluates autonomous driving, I have become convinced that such progress can be measured most reliably in closed loop, which makes simulation indispensable for driving and robotics alike. I also believe in open research: when code, data, and models are shared, we can build on each other's methods, and results remain verifiable as the field moves on.
