Hi, I’m Aryaman

PhD student at University of Southern California (USC) and graduate of Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), Varanasi. Check my recent Research.

I'm working with Prof. Somil Bansal at SIAL,USC on Providing Safety Assurances in Learning-Baed Controls for Autonomous Systems.

I've previously worked with Prof. Hashim Mohamed on Deep-RL Based Docking Mechanism for VTOL UAVs on Offshore Platforms.

My research is focussed on developing Safe Learning-Based Controls for Autonomous Agents in Safety-Critical Applications.
