- Signals and Strategy Research — Developed processes to fit models on market movements. Explored the effect of sampling schemes, objective labels, model selection criteria, and meta strategy parameters on backtest simulations and live performance. - Data Pipeline — Designed and owned a system to parse market events for live trading strategies or capture.

- Robot Policy Development — Re-architected the system design for all robot motions and policies to allow arbitrary policies to be chained together. Designed pick policies for suction cup grippers to intelligently approach items quickly without damage, increasing overall system cycle time by 240%. - Published a US patent (US20210081791) as a result of this.

I have taught EE 106B/206B (Robotic Manipulation and Interaction) for two semesters. The material in EE 106B/206B is directly relevant to the research I have been conducting in the AutoLab. I generate homework problems and labs for the students and grade both. I teach Discussions with small groups of students and hold office hours to reinforce the course.

Conduct research in Robotic Manipulation, Computer Vision and Path Planning incorporating Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. Developed models for Toppling and Pushing to increase access to robust parallel jaw and suction cup grasps. Using a hybrid of Imitation Learning and Model Predictive Control, I significantly reduced the number of.

I created a Messenger Bot which would allow the developers on the Crowdsourcing team to better understand how Facebook user claims were processed through the Crowdsourcing pipeline for faster development. To do this, I studied the feedback from Facebook Employees outside of the Crowdsourcing team and came up with a roadmap of functionality I deemed to be.

Using ElasticSearch, I modified the Facebook Career website to remove Facebook’s dependence on Salesforce to back the data displayed on each page. This had two benefits: speed and reliability. It reduced certain page load times from upwards of 10-15 seconds to under 1. Facebook was limited in the number of Salesforce DB queries it could make each day. This.

Using ROS, I created an interface to easily send collision free joint trajectory commands to the 7Bot and Yumi robots. This system could use several different path planners, such as CHOMP and RRT* to determine the optimal collision free path. I used the Yumi robot for real time path planning and collision avoidance to play a game of chess. This work was.
