Undergraduate Computer Vision & AI Researcher ยท SRM Institute of Science and Technology

My research currently focuses on optimizing 3D Gaussian Splatting to enable faster rendering of 3D scene reconstructions through:

  • Transient Removal: Segmenting dynamic occlusions via CLIP-guided supervision to recover clean background geometry.
  • Primitive Processing: Applying per-Gaussian scoring and pruning to eliminate ghosting artifacts and reduce memory footprint.

My long-term research goal is 3D computer vision for Embodied AI, developing 3D world models that enable autonomous systems and robots to perceive and interact with dynamic physical environments.

Research Experience

International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad Jun 2025 โ€“ Present
Research Assistant (3D Vision and Reconstruction)

Designed and implemented a semantic-guided 3D Gaussian Splatting (CLIP-GS) framework leveraging vision-language supervision for transient object detection and removal.

Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur Mar 2026 โ€“ Aug 2026
Research Intern (Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning)

Developed a cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning framework using QMIX for adaptive quick-commerce route optimization under dynamic traffic, weather, and operational constraints.

Indian Academy of Sciences, Bengaluru Jul 2025 โ€“ Aug 2025
Summer Research Fellow (3D Vision & Neural Rendering)

Benchmarked multi-model rendering pipelines (NeRF, InstantNGP, 3DGS) on consumer hardware (RTX 3050, 6GB VRAM) to systematically evaluate trade-offs in VRAM overhead, memory footprint, and rasterization speed under resource constraints.
