James Tu

I am a MSc student under the supervision of professor Raquel Urtasun at the University of Toronto. I also received my bachelors in Engineering Science at the University of Toronto, majoring in eletrical and computer engineering and with a minor in robotics. Previously, I worked as a research scientist on self-driving at Uber ATG and on protein folding at ProteinQure. In my spare time I like to go rock climbing, listen to music, and play guitar.

Research

I'm interested in computer vision, machine learning, self-driving, and reinforcement learning. My research so far has focused on self-driving, particularly regarding adversarial robustness, perception, and vehicle-to-vehicle communication.
