Hi! I'm an MS in Robotics student at Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof. Deva Ramanan. I am currently working on 3D semantic representation learning.

I recently completed my undergrad at IIIT Delhi, where I worked with Prof. Saket Anand and Depanshu Sani on active learning in animal re-identification.

Previously, I was a research intern at the Toronto Computation Imaging Group (TCIG), where I worked with Prof. David Lindell and Anagh Malik on multi-view reconstruction using single-photon images, and curated a single-photon dataset.

Research

My research primarily focuses on understanding and interpreting the physical world.

Pre-training on pseudolabels generated by 2D foundation models significantly improves 3D object detection accuracy with limited labeled data for both LiDAR-only and multi-modal detectors.

An active learning framework that uses disagreement between clustering methods to select informative and ambiguous samples, improving performance of animal re-identification models while minimizing annotation effort.
