Yağız Nalçakan, PhD
Postdoc Researcher in Seamless Transportation Lab at Yonsei University.
I am a Postdoctoral researcher at Yonsei University’s Seamless Transportation Lab (STL). I received my Ph.D. degree in computer science from the Izmir Institute of Technology, under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Yalin Bastanlar. My doctoral research focused on vehicle maneuver detection for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). During my Ph.D., I had the opportunity to spend a term as a visiting research scholar at Seoul National University’s Vehicle Dynamics and Control Laboratory (VDCL) & the Future Mobility Technology Center (FMTC) supported by a research scholarship from TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey). My research interests lie in the fields of computer vision and deep learning. Specifically, I specialize in developing deep learning and computer vision-based solutions for predicting the behavior of traffic users.
