About

I am an AI & Controls Data Scientist contributing to Honeywell's business(New Program Increments) by developing products/solutions related to Connected/Autonomous/Sustainable buildings using AI/ML, data driven Model Predictive Control and Reinforcement Learning. My previous work focuses on Research & Development of connected electric vehicles platform and digital solutions. I have diverse experience in first principle mathematical and data driven modelling, advanced control and estimation of automotive engines. Some topics in which I have made significant contributions are SI/HCCI combustion simulation and control using chemical equilibrium chemical reactions, control optimization of hybrid power trains, engine thermal management system, battery material degradation using LSTM networks etc.. My prior work was mainly on modelling and control of robotic systems and autonomous vehicles.
