Akshay L Chandra

Hi! I am an M.Sc. Computer Science student at the University of Freiburg, specializing in Artificial Intelligence. Currently, I am working as a Student Research Assistant on robot learning and manipulation, supervised by Iman Nematollahi and Prof. Dr. Wolfram Burgard at the Autonomous Intelligent Systems lab. My current interests are in the intersection of computer vision, robot and deep reinforcement learning.

Earlier, I was a research assistant at Dr. Vineeth N Balasubramanian’s Machine Learning and Vision (MLV) research group at IIT Hyderabad for nearly 3 years, mainly working on deep active learning for image data. During my time at IIT Hyderabad, I also frequently collaborated with Dr. Wei Guo at the Field Phenomics Lab (University of Tokyo) and worked on several plant phenotyping solutions.
