Eric T. Matson works on multi-agent systems, robotics, and machine learning applied to real-world detection and monitoring problems, such as drone (UAV) detection, surveillance, and sensor-based tracking. His recent work combines techniques like computer vision, acoustic sensing, and reinforcement learning to build systems that can detect, classify, and respond to objects or events, ranging from drones and crowds to network security threats.
