  • - Integrating RL based agents to sample subgraphs for reasoning

Robotics & Reinforcement Learning

  • - Worked on PAL Robotics equipped with omnidirectional mobility and LiDAR based perception
  • - Trained mobile manipulators (robotic arms) to perform precise object manipulation using RL

Computer Vision

  • - Implemented a deep residual network to determine soiling quantification using CNN and Transformer architectures
  • - Currently working to create a hybrid model while also including environmental factors

Research Direction

  • - Actively looking to engage in research at the intersection of vision, RL and multi-modal learning

Get In Touch

I'm always open to discussing research ideas, collaboration opportunities or just having a conversation about shared interests.
