I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Georgia Tech, where I have the privilege of being advised by Prof. Judy Hoffman. Before this, I completed my M.S. at Georgia Tech and earned my B.Tech. from Manipal Institute of Technology, where I was mentored by Prof. Harish Kumar JR. I have also interned at IISc Bangalore, collaborating with Dr. Chandan Gautam and Prof. Suresh Sundaram. During my undergraduate years, I was actively involved in Project MANAS and the Research Society Manipal.
- World Models (WFM): Developing VLM-based benchmarks for automatic evaluation of world models.
- 7B Open-Source VLM: Open-vocabulary 3D scene graph generation (under review).
- SkyScenes: Synthetic aerial dataset for real-world segmentation (ECCV 2024).
- Generalist Multimodal LLM: Jointly-trained vision-audio model that reduces cross-modal interference and outperforms larger models.
My research advances vision-language models (VLMs) by extending their capabilities across modalities, spatial reasoning, and evaluation—integrating audio, enhancing spatial understanding, and enabling automatic evaluation of world models for robotic manipulation. I have also worked on syn-to-real transfer and domain generalization.
💼 I'm currently seeking research internships for 2026 — feel free to reach out if you're hiring!
