Gaurav Singh
I am a second-year PhD student at Brown University, advised by Prof. Srinath Sridhar, at the Interactive 3D Vision & Learning Lab (IVL). My current work focuses on goal-conditioned deformable object manipulation with world action models, and more broadly on modeling deformable dynamics for robot manipulation, through both simulation and learned models.
I completed my B.Tech and MS by Research in Computer Science at IIIT Hyderabad, advised by Prof. K. Madhava Krishna where I worked on 3D representations for shape completion, reconstruction and 6-DoF grasp pose generation. I've also been fortunate to work with Professors George Konidaris, Tomás Lozano-Pérez, Leslie Pack Kaelbling, Arun Kumar Singh, and Nagamanikandan Govindan.
I am currently looking for a research internship for 2027. Please reach out if you think I could be a good fit for your team!

Research
My research interests lie at the intersection of computer vision and robot learning. I am interested in neural models that learn to predict systems with complex, coupled dynamics, and in how those predictions can support decision making. More broadly, I work on visual representations and dynamics models for generalizable robot manipulation.
