01 / About

I’m Devesh, a third-year Robotics PhD student at Georgia Tech in the Trustworthy Robotics Lab, advised by Dr. Glen Chou. I develop methods for capable, provably safe robotic planning and control using control theory, statistics, and learned representations.

Progress comes from combining data and compute with theoretically motivated methods. I focus on learning representations that make this combination more powerful, efficient, and reliable. I work on world models, Koopman operators, conformal prediction, and robust control to make real-time planning scale with meaningful safety guarantees.
