Henrik Kretzschmar
You can find a list of my scientific publications on this web page. My research interests focus on mobile robot navigation and machine learning.
I was awarded a PhD from the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Freiburg under the advisement of Wolfram Burgard in October 2014.
I left the University of Freiburg to join Google in Mountain View, California, in November 2014.
