Abhinav Narayan Harish

I am a CS PhD student at University of Wisconsin Madison working with Professor Josiah Hanna. Prior to this, I was a Master's student with Professor Zsolt Kira working on using Reinforcement Learning (RL) for long-horizon rearrangement. I received my Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering with a minor in Computer Science from IITGN .

Broadly, I'm interested in Reinforcement Learning (RL) and it's application in the field of Robotics. My goal is to explore using end to end RL to learn long horizon tasks in simulation, and transfer them to the real world.
