@harshitbokadia
I build and deploy AI systems for healthcare, embodied intelligence, and interpretable machine learning.
What I'm looking for
At Singapore University of Technology and Design, I build embodied intelligence pipelines combining MuJoCo humanoid simulation and Bayesian inverse reinforcement learning to infer world models from human motion data. I also design real-time inference loops that connect estimated world models with task design.
Previously, I deployed Azure ML and EHR-integrated clinical AI at Waypoint and built medication recommendation and multi-site clinical data systems at Holland Bloorview. My research spans healthcare AI, saliency-method evaluation, transformer knowledge encoding, EEG brain-machine interfaces, and neural dynamics.
