Electronics engineer researching reinforcement learning for the optimization and control of RF, wireless, and autonomous physical systems. First-author published research in embedded fall detection.
My work spans the full stack, PCB design and firmware up through model training and on-device deployment. Currently extending that foundation into computational electromagnetics and AI-accelerated antenna design
- RL for wireless systems: reinforcement learning for spectrum access and antenna optimization (see
dqn-dynamic-spectrum-access,rl-dipole-tuning) - Wearable health-IoT: embedded ML for real-time sensor data (fall detection, activity recognition)
PhD opportunities and research collaboration in reinforcement learning for intelligent wireless and autonomous physical systems, spanning RF/antenna optimization, spectrum access, edge AI, and simulation-driven digital twins for physical systems.
