Jessie Yuan

I'm currently a fourth-year undergraduate studying computer science at Carnegie Mellon University. I am fortunate to be working with Prof. Andrea Bajcsy on uncertainty quantification to allow robots to operate more reliably. Previously, I had the pleasure of working with Prof. Zackory Erickson on human-robot interaction and assistive robotics.
