samtar-1 Description
Tarekegn Sami Gulilat is an undergraduate student in the School of Electrical Engineering at KAIST, Daejeon, South Korea. He joined the MIC Lab in June 2026 as a research intern through the KAIST Undergraduate Research Program (URP), advised by Prof. Kyunghwan Choi.
His research interests include autonomous racing, opponent trajectory prediction, and uncertainty-aware, chance-constrained motion planning, in particular using Gaussian processes and conformal prediction to quantify prediction uncertainty for head-to-head overtaking on the F1TENTH (RoboRacer) platform.
Current project: Opponent-Aware Overtaking (OAO) — a closed-loop study of how calibrated forecast uncertainty should be used by a Frenet-frame overtaking planner.
