Work Experience

Associate Researcher
2020 - 2023
Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI)
Hsinchu, Taiwan
  • - Deliver features on an automatic tool for the High-Definition(HD) map data collection. The tool helps this team gather city-scale mapping data (approximately 3000 kilometers) by a part-time driver. The features include the sensors' disconnection handler and an interactive Leaflet map viewer showing the instant location and past trajectories.
  • - Researched the global accuracy criteria of HD maps. Implemented constraints using pose-graph optimization to elevate the absolute accuracy of the HD maps.
  • - Implement a pose-graph optimization library using Ceres-Solver to accelerate the processes before HD maps export. The optimization helps the lidar scans match and connect pieces of scan points into a HD maps.
  • - Manage, generate, and annotate the constraints used in HD maps for elevating the scan-matching quality. These maps are vital in the team's controller module and serve many purposes, like traffic light detection. I have participated in 200+ km of map production in Taiwan. Moreover, I have contributed to 130+ km on the city link in Melbourne, Australia.
