Bharat Joshi

I am currently a Ph.D. student at the Computer Science Department at University of South Carolina. I am working on problems at the intersection of Robotics x Computer Vision at Autonomous Field Robotics Lab advised by Prof. Ioannis Rekeitis.

My research interest lies at the intersection of robotics, computer vision, and machine learning. I am particularly interested in developing visual SLAM algorithms for underwater robots. I have worked on projects involving comparing various state estimation algorithms in the underwater domain, developing a deep pose estimation framework for underwater relative localization, and using GoPro as an inexpensive sensor for underwater structure mapping. I am currently working to develop robust state estimation algorithms for underwater environments.

I received my Bachelor’s Degree from Tribhuvan University, Pulchowk Campus.
