I am a Machine Learning Research Scientist at Toyota Research Institute working on deep-learning based 3D perception systems for robotics. I received my PhD in the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology. I was advised by Dr. Zsolt Kira from the Robotics, Perception and Learning (RIPL) Lab. My PhD thesis is titled Learning 3D Robotics Perception using Inductive Priors. My thesis is available here and the dissertation defense video here.

My current research focuses on 3D perception, Scene Understanding and Embodied AI and covers topics such as neural implicit reconstruction (i.e. NeRF, Gaussian Splatting), efficient 3D object detection, 6D pose estimation and visual embodied navigation. Feel free to contact me to talk anything related to 3D Vision, Robotics, NeRFs, Deep Learning or related to some of my projects. Below you will find my projects portfolio. You can find my updated resume here.

I’m a technical reviewer for Machine Learning and Robotics Conferences including CVPR, ECCV, ICCV, ICLR, Neurips, ICRA, IROS and Siggraph and the lead organizer of RoboNeRF Workshop at ICRA’24!
