Itay Kadosh is a PhD student in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Florida. His research interests are robotics, computer vision, and optimization.
Before joining UF he studied computer science and applied mathematics at the University of Texas at Dallas, where he worked in the Intelligent Robotics and Vision Lab on autonomous exploration and semantic mapping. That work built a robot that maps an indoor environment once and then keeps only the semantic object layer up to date on later visits, so it can track how objects move and change over time without remapping the geometry.
