Since October 2023, I have been doing research with the
Personal Robotics Lab
and the WEIRD Lab in
association with the Paul G. Allen School at UW. I have had the privilege
of working with Professors
Siddhartha Srinivasa
and
Abhishek Gupta.
My research has covered many domains of robotics -- my first major project
was a complete Inverse Kinematics Solver overhaul for our
chopsticks robot, Tycho. I
implemented a novel method of using
simulator end effector control to solve IK in a simulated
environment. See
here
for a quick write-up explaining my simulator-based IK solver.
Additionally, I worked on a paper on
Continuity-Based Corrective Labels in the context of
Robot Behavior Cloning, accepted into IROS 2024 as an oral presentation, see here.
Most recently, I have submitted my first first-author paper for review to ICLR 2025, a top machine learning conference. For anonymity during the review process, I will provide no additional details, but will update this site when I'm able.
