Vladimir Ivan

I have joined IPAB as a PhD student in 2010. I earned my BSc in Computer Science and Robotics at the University of Bedfordshire in 2009 and my MSc in Artificial Intelligence at  University of Edinburgh in 2010.

I am currently working on topology based motion synthesis and planning problem sponsored by EPSRC. The project is supervised by Sethu Vijayakumar, Taku Komura and Subramanian Ramamoorthy.
