Seungjae Baek Email: seungjab (at) andrew.cmu.edu I am an incoming PhD student at the Carnegie Mellon University Robotics Institute (CMU RI), starting in Fall 2026. I am very fortunate to be supported by the Korean Government Scholarship Program for Study Overseas during my PhD degree. I am currently a master's student in the Graduate School of Artificial Intelligence (AIGS) at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), advised by Professor Jeong hwan Jeon in the Robotics and Mobility Lab (RML). I was a visiting researcher at the CMU RI, where I collaborate with Professor Sebastian Scherer and the AirLab (Aug. 2024 - Jan. 2026; Remote: Mar. 2025 - Jul. 2025). My research focuses on robot learning, informative path planning, and multi-robot systems, with an emphasis on robust autonomy in real-world environments. CV / GitHub / Google Scholar / LinkedIn |
