Abstract
It has been five years when I boarded that flight to DTW (a completely different world) to follow my dreams of getting a PhD. Since then it’s been a journey full of learning and I have tried to soak in as much knowledge as I could. As I stand at the end of this road, I would like to thank those who are an integral part of this beautiful journey. First of all I would like to thank my supervisor Ryan Eustice for his excellent guidance and support throughout my graduate studies. I really appreciate his patience to discuss and explain even the most trivial questions that I have asked him several times. He always had time to meet and discuss any problem. He always made sure that I am making progress and always guided me towards the right path. Thanks Ryan for always keeping me on track by your formula of “Must, Should and Would be nice”. I will remember this mantra of success for the rest of my life. Next I would like to thank my co-advisor Silvio Savarese for his invaluable inputs on my research. Those weekly meetings helped me to stay focused and steadily progress towards my goal. I would also like to thank my committee members Alfred Hero and Honglak Lee for their valuable suggestions at times.
