I'm a Ph.D. student, and a research assistant, at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Robotics Engineering Department,
Robot Autonomy and Interactive Learning Group. My advisor is Assistant Professor
Sonia Chernova.
My research interests are machine learning for robotics, service robots, situated agents and systems that learn from a human teacher and/or from their environment.
Recently, I am working on learning from demonstration. I'm using Nao the humanoid robot and
Robot Operating System to implement most of my work.
I'm also interested in new application areas for machine learning such as automation systems at home and industry, regenerative energy resource management, and smart energy management systems.
