Richard Capraru [hot]

Capraru’s journey into the field of electrical and electronic engineering began at University College London

Investigating how these sensors perceive environments, particularly in adverse weather conditions like rain.

His transition to the Ph.D. program at NTU marked a significant evolution in his research scope. While his undergraduate work was sensor-centric, his doctoral research has grown to encompass the larger system-level security and reliability issues of those sensors. This shift is evident in his collaboration with leading experts like , a renowned figure in resilient information systems security. Supported by the NTU-Imperial Global Fellows Program , this collaboration has been instrumental in steering his research toward the critical area of cybersecurity for autonomous vehicles. richard capraru

Dr. Capraru’s research has heavily influenced the ways automotive manufacturers approach multi-sensor fusion. Below is a summary of his most influential contributions:

His published work addresses practical challenges in modern sensing technology. For example, his research on "GhostLite" proposes new methods to minimize data for real-time LiDAR attacks, while other papers examine "catastrophic forgetting" in detection models—the tendency of AI to lose previous knowledge when learning to detect objects in new environments, such as rain.

Richard Capraru is a researcher and academic specializing in the intersection of , cybersecurity , and signal processing . He is currently a PhD candidate at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore and the Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R) at A*STAR. Academic Background and Education
