This post pays homage to the 3 generations of women before me. Will also refine beyond this first draft.
From sci-fi writer to AI engineer: a strange journey
Published:
This post tries to 1) explain what I’ve been up to all this time & 2) send some positivity into the world :) Will continuously update beyond this initial draft.

PolyPoD: An Algorithm for Polyculture Seed Placement
IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE) 2023
We present PolyPoD, a new algorithm for seed placement. Given a polygonal farm boundary, number and types of seeds, PolyPoD generates the variable radius poisson disk distribution to compute viable seed placements. Results suggest that PolyPoD does better than our previous seed placement algorithm in avoiding over-competition, utilization of space, and plant segmentation. Link coming soon.

SGTM 2.0: Autonomously Untangling Long Cables using Interactive Perception
IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) 2023
This paper extends prior work on autonomously untangling long cables by introducing novel uncertainty quantification metrics and actions that interact with the cable to reduce perception uncertainty. We present Sliding and Grasping for Tangle Manipulation 2.0 (SGTM 2.0), a system that autonomously untangles cables. Experiments suggest that SGTM 2.0 can achieve 83% untangling success on cables with 1 or 2 overhand and figure-8 knots, and 70% termination detection success across these configurations, outperforming SGTM 1.0 by 43% in untangling accuracy and 200% in full rollout speed.

IIFL: Implicit Interactive Fleet Learning from Heterogeneous Human Supervisors
Conference on Robot Learning (CoRL) 2023
In this work, we propose addressing both multimodality and distribution shift with Implicit Interactive Fleet Learning (IIFL), the first extension of implicit policies to interactive imitation learning (including the single-robot, single-human setting). It achieves 4.5x higher return on human effort in simulation experiments and an 80% higher success rate in a physical block pushing task over (Explicit) IFL, IBC, and other baselines when human supervision is heterogeneous.
