Andrew Lawrence Price is a Canadian Postdoctoral Researcher currently working at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in both the Computer Vision Laboratory (CVLAB) within the School of Computer and Communication Sciences and the Education Services Centre (ESC). He holds a PhD in Spacecraft Robotics from Tohoku University, Japan (2019-2024), an MASc in Flight Research from National Research Council and Carleton University, Canada (2013-2015), and a B.Eng in Aerospace from Carleton University, Canada (2009-2013). Dr. Price's research focuses on the intersection of computer vision, robotics, and space applications. His work addresses critical challenges in spacecraft pose estimation, particularly for resource-constrained systems where computational capacity is limited. He has developed innovative approaches for network quantization in 6D object pose estimation, enabling high-accuracy performance with significantly reduced computational requirements. His research spans both theoretical development and practical implementation, with applications ranging from small satellite operations to asteroid exploration missions like the Hayabusa2 Minerva-II2 deployment. His publication record demonstrates a clear evolution from earlier work in aerospace acoustics and vibration analysis to his current focus on computer vision for space applications. The most recent publications reveal a strong emphasis on solving practical constraints in space missions, particularly addressing bandwidth limitations in spacecraft communications and computational constraints in onboard processing systems. His work bridges multiple disciplines, connecting aerospace engineering with cutting-edge computer vision techniques.
