Design and train foundation models that integrate vision, language, and actions for embodied intelligence
Adapt LLMs and VLMs for robotic control, planning, and interactive behavior, enabling context-aware decision making
Develop AI-driven control policies for manipulation, grasping, and motion planning using reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and foundation model approaches
Build modular, scalable, and high-performance data processing, training, and inference pipelines for large-scale datasets
Design reproducible workflows for training, evaluation, and deployment, including benchmarking for generalization, safety, and task success
Push the state of the art and bring it into production — this includes staying current with (and ideally contributing to) the research literature, and translating advances into systems that actually ship
