MR-CRL: Leveraging Predictive Representations for Contrastive Goal-Conditioned Reinforcement

RLC 2025 Workshop on Reinforcement Learning Beyond Rewards

Developed a predictive representation algorithm for goal-conditioned reinforcement learning in maze and manipulation tasks.

Humanoid World Models: Open World Foundation Models for Humanoid Robotics

ICML 2025 Workshop on Building Physically-Plausible World Models

Trained video-based world models for humanoid robotics using diffusion, flow matching, and masked transformers. Used parameter reduction strategies to reduce model size.

RepViT-MedSAM: Efficient Segment Anything in the Medical Images

Springer, Cham (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 15458)

RepViT-MedSAM proposes an efficient, distilled alternative to MedSAM for medical image segmentation, achieving strong Dice and NSD scores while reducing computational cost. Designed as part of a Medical Imaging contest.

GraphPad: Inference-Time 3D Scene Graph Updates for Embodied Question Answering

CVPR 2025 Workshop on Bridging Language, Vision and Action in 3D Environments

Proposed a scene graph and API-based reasoning pipeline that improved EQA benchmarks using fewer images.

MGSO: Monocular Real-time Photometric SLAM with Efficient 3D Gaussian Splatting

ICRA 2025, Main conference

Helped develop a real-time 3D reconstruction algorithm using Gaussian Splatting and DSO SLAM. Team achieved state of the art visual quality and FPS. Note: I was not the lead author on this paper, but contributed to the gaussian splatting improvements.
