It's Me, Josh!

I am graduate student at The University of Texas at Austin advised by Swarat Chaudhuri. I am interested in neuro-symbolic programming, program synthesis, and reinforcement learning with a focus towards question in autonomus agent cooperation, economics, and finance.

I lead the NeuroSymbolic reading group, and I am the TA for CS 378: Safe and Ethical Artificial Intelligence. Additionally, I am a proud alum of Northeastern University Khoury College and CCIS.

Research

  • Program Synthesis

    Learning frameworks that automatically generate code that can solve a series of complex tasks

  • NeuroSymbolic Programming

    Techniques that leverage the reliability and strength of formal methods in combination with the power of neural networks

  • Reinforcement Learnings

    Creating methods that learn more optimal neural policies for a variety of continuous domains

Service

I am proud to lend a hand when I can
