Selim Emir Can

I am a second-year master's student in the Electrical Engineering Department at Stanford University, working at the Stanford Physical and Spatial Intelligence Lab under Professor Gordon Wetzstein.

Previously, I completed my undergraduate studies in Electrical Engineering at UCLA, where I worked with the Visual Machines Group under Professor Achuta Kadambi and conducted microscopy research under Professor Aydogan Ozcan.

My research interests lie at the intersection of computer vision, imaging, and artificial intelligence, with applications in AI-assisted healthcare, robotics, remote sensing, and AR/VR. More recently, I am interested in evaluating the spatial and physical reasoning capabilities of foundation models, and in multimodal ML representations for distributed, multisensory agents.
