Om mig

I am a final year of Ph.D. student at Robotics, Perception and Learning (RPL) Labratory under the supervision of Prof. Danica Kragic. I have completed my masters degree in information systems at Middle East Technical University, Turkey under the supervison of Assoc. Prof. Alptekin Temizel and my bachelor degree in computer science at Bilkent University, Turkey.

My general interest is robotic manipulation, computer vision and machine learning.

My Ph.D. thesis integrates mathematics, machine-learning and simulation techniques to solve the problem of manipulating of unknown objects. These objects can be rigid or deformable. Such properties affects the way that robot manipulates the object, i.e. deformable objects can show unpredictable behaviours while rigid objects have less degrees of freedom. However robot does not know such informations before hand and may not apply the proper manipulation. Hence I am investigating the usage of the visual and haptic sensors together with simulation techniques in the exploration of such information to learn the object properties for better manipulation.
