My research interests primarily revolve around statistics and machine learning, with a particular focus on their intersection with robotics.
Download ResumeI am a graduate student pursuing Master's in Machine Learning program at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). I love to involve myself with complex and interesting systems, and autonomous robots are no different.
Currently, I have been working in Auton Lab (advised by Jeff Schneider) with the self-driving group to improve language conditioned autonomous driving via evolutionary search on diffusion policies (more info here). (Demo).
Earlier, I use to lead Mars Rover Team at IITB, where we used make autonomous rovers to rule over unknown terrains.
Even now and then I work on building projects that interest me, and can find some of them in the projects section.
Love playing table tennis (a good player I am), which has helped me many other racket sports: squash, tennis, badminton.
Spent much of my spare time in childhood playing FPS games (CSGO, Valorant, Overwatch, etc.), and I am living in my childhood.
You defeat me in Super Mario, I give you a free hat.
Working at Auton Lab with Prof. Jeff Schneider to improve language conditioned autonomous driving via evolutionary search on diffusion based policies.
Working on an XR project for making neuroscience study easier and accessible to all. Creating interactive visualizations of neural structures and processes.
