Research Interests
My interests lie in how to effectively utilize a variety of data sources, both onboard and offboard, to improve automotive performance and efficiency. Specifically, integration of new sensor technologies, data streams, and analysis methods into traditional powertrain control architectures. My work primarily involves implementing and operating data acquisition systems on our project vehicle fleet, developing proof-of-concept software tools and prototypes, and refining our group’s Model-based Design workflow.
