Lab Members

Bharath Ramesh, Research Scientist (personal website)

Bharath’s main research interests include pattern recognition and computer vision. At present, his research is centered on event-based cameras for autonomous robot navigation. This includes localization and mapping with an array of sensors, most importantly event-based cameras, to be processed efficiently to yield accurate results at real-time. In the past, he has mostly worked on object recognition and related areas such as scene understanding, face recognition, and object detection. He received the B.E. degree in electrical & electronics engineering from Anna University of India in 2009; M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from National University of Singapore in 2011 and 2015 respectively, working at the Control and Simulation Laboratory on Image Classification using Invariant Features.


Fabien Colonnier, Research Scientist

Fabien received his MSc in automotive engineering with a speciality on embedded systems from the ESTACA engineering school in 2012 and his PhD degree in bio-robotics from the Aix-Marseille University in 2017, both in France. He was early interested in autonomous vehicles and robots. An opportunity to work on bio-inspired vision attracted him. His research on the fly’s compound eyes made him realized how impressive these insects are (he does not swat them anymore, except mosquitos which are really annoying!). His current research interests include bio-inspired vision, event-based camera, computer vision and their applications to aerial and ground vehicles.

Sumit Bam Shrestha, Research Scientist

Sumit Bam Shrestha received his PhD from School of EEE, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. His research is mainly focused on Spiking Neural Networks and also include Neural Networks, Machine Learning, Image Processing and Pattern Recognition.

Luca Della Vedova, Associate Scientist

Luca received a double MSc from Politecnico di Milano (Italy) and KTH (Sweden) in Biomedical Engineering and Information and Communication Technology. He is a DIY geek and has been working on a variety of projects, from embedded neural classifiers to autonomous robots. His education focused on digital and analog electronics design, and in his working experience and free time he acquired firmware and software development skills. His interests are mainly in sensors and electronics design but also reach the surrounding topics of machine learning and software development.

Chen Yu, Associate Scientist

Yu Chen received her B.Eng degree at National University of Singapore’s Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. She is now working with Temasek Laboratories and pursuing her Master’s degree to advance her knowledge and skills in computer vision and UAV applications, which she strongly interested in. She aims to be a life-long learner and an inspiration in the STEM fields.

Yang Hong, Associate Scientist

Yang Hong received her Bachelor's degree at University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC). She is now a master student of NUS and under a working scheme in Temasek Lab. Her current research is on event-based cameras, dealing with some computer vision problems with MATLAB and C++.

Andrés Camilo Ussa Caycedo, Associate Scientist

Andrés received his MSc from TU Kaiserslautern and University of Southampton in Embedded Computing Systems. His previous research experience has been focused on embedded systems design and machine learning applications. He had a short experience as a Software/Hardware Developer for consumer electronics.
