Jun Yamada

I am currently a research intern at OMRON SINICX working on robot learning research and an incoming PhD student at the University of Oxford.

I was a visiting student at the University of Southern California, advised by Professor Joseph J. Lim. I did my master at University College London, supervised by Professor John Shawe-Taylor and Dr. Zafeirios Fountas. I got my bachelor degree at Keio University, advised by Professor Akito Sakurai.

• [Oct 2020] Our paper on augmenting reinforcement learning with motion planning accepted to CoRL 2020!

I'm interested in Robot Learning, Reinforcement Learning, and Computer Vision.

Our approach augments model-free RL agents with motion planning capabilities, enabling them to solve long-horizon manipulation tasks in cluttered environments.
