Arda Sarp Yenicesu

I hold an M.S. in Computer Engineering from Bilkent University, where I specialized in Task and Motion Planning (TAMP) under the guidance of Dr. Ozgur S. Oguz as part of the Learning for Intelligent Robot Assistants Lab (LIRA). My research focused on enhancing the intellectual capacity of embodied agents by tackling the integration of motion planning with high-level task reasoning.
Inspired by evolutionary biology, my work emphasized developing adaptable frameworks for embodied agents to interact intelligently in dynamic environments. By merging task-and-motion planning with environmental affordances, I aimed to enable agents to generalize behaviors and utilize information more effectively.
I also hold a B.S. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Bilkent University, with a strong foundation in machine learning and robotics. Always open to research and collaboration opportunities, feel free to connect or reach out to me for further discussion.
