Shivam Duggal

I am a Ph.D. student at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) department.

Previously, I was a master's student at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute (MSR), advised by Prof. Deepak Pathak. I was fortunate to be a Siebel Scholar at CMU. Before CMU, I worked as a Research Scientist at Uber ATG Toronto, advised by Prof. Raquel Urtasun. I also worked closely with Prof. Shenlong Wang.

My research interests lie at the intersection of computer vision, computer graphics, and robotics, with a focus on designing intelligent algorithms.
