The ever-shifting pile of thoughts and stuff. [~] I am a high school student pursuing research in the fields of robotics and computer science. I am most interested in designing tiny, self-contained, autonomous robots that take inspiration from the morphology of insects. I am also intrigued by robotic exploration algorithms, machine learning, and operating systems (specifically Linux). My current research involves the use of reinforcement learning to prune dynamic graphs that are used as part of robotic exploration algorithms, in order to reduce the amount of information that must be stored and thereby improve the performance of exploration. Read more about it here. I have also recently started working on a second project involving safe intelligent control for multi-agent systems. Besides these academic interests, I have been an avid origami enthusiast for over ten years. I've folded hundreds of models and also designed a few of my own. I have also recently picked up bonsai. You can check out some of my creations via the tabs at the top. About this site --------------- This website is primarily meant to be a place to showcase my projects, write about my interests and hobbies, and collect my thoughts in one place. The site itself is built using 'sed'regexmagic to insert plaintext / markdown- ish documents into an HTML template using <pre> tags to preserve formatting. I borrowed the idea from the Kiss Linux website, and it works quite nicely. Contact ------- You can reach me over email at zuavs.origamiy example com.![]()
