I am a final year undergraduate student at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at IIT Kharagpur. My research interests lie at the intersection of human robot interaction and robot learning. Currently, I work with Prof. Siddhartha Srinavasa and Christoforos Mavrogiannis at the University of Washington, on social navigation. My work is mainly on ensuring human safety and comfort in crowd navigation scenarios. I am also exploring how does human motion prediction affect robot control, grounding my work with real-world trials on the Honda P.A.T.H Bot. During Summer 2022, I had the pleasure of working with Prof. Sarath Chandar at Mila - Quebec AI Insitute on dealing with non-stationarity in multi-agent learning. Previously, I also spend a summer at Adobe Research, working at the intersection of topological representation and lifelong learning. I will be applying for PhD positions for the Fall 2023 admit. email | cv | github | google scholar |
