Hello, I’m Mahendra.

I did PostDoctoral research at HyConSys Lab. in the Department of Computer Science, University of Colorado Boulder from 2021 to 2023.

I received PhD degree from Department of Computer Science Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich; M.Tech. degree (Electrical Engineering) from Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, India; and B.Tech. degree (Electrical Engineering) from Indian Institute of Technology (ISM) Dhanbad, India. During masters, I was at Technical University of Munich for 6 months, supported by DAAD scholarship, to work on masters thesis. My current research focuses on control under data-rate constraints.

PhD thesis: Invariance feedback entropy of uncertain nonlinear control systems.

M.Tech. thesis: Experimental Evaluation of Methods of Reachable Set Computation in Context of Symbolic Controller Synthesis

Projects:

• Numerical over-approximation of, optimal feedback data rate for set invariance, via finite abstractions

• Automated lane keeping and obstacle avoidance for vehicles using symbolic controllers

• Time to access symbolic control input via Scarab (a microarchitecture simulator)

• SymReach: a C++ tool for the computation of over-approximation of reachable sets of continuous time nonlinear systems.
