Hi there! :wave:

I'm Rupali. I'm a second year Ph.D. student at Northeastern University, Boston supervised by Chris Amato. I find multi-agent problems very interesting and spend most of my time working on sovling such problems using reinforcement learning. In my previous life, I completed my M.Sc. in Computer Science program at Université Laval and Mila, Montreal where my advisor was Audrey Durand. My work during my masters focused on performative prediction in time series problems in healthcare and I also spent some time working on problems in multi-agent reinforcement learning.

Previously, I worked as a Reinforcement Learning Consultant and worked on several cool projects with many startups. I also did some work on autonomous vehicles as a Research Assistant at Indraprastha Institute of Technology Delhi with Saket Anand. I completed my B.Tech from Delhi Technological University with a major in Electronics and Communication, where S.Indu was my mentor.
