Tapana Gupta’s Home Page

 

Hi! I’m Tapana Gupta. I recently graduated with a Master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles. I worked as a Research Assistant under Prof. Milind Tambe during my graduate studies here. My research focused on Multi-Agent Systems; specifically I have done work on algorithms for Distributed Partially Observable Markov Decision Problems (POMDPs). I was also involved in the development of a Multiagent Adjustable Autonomy Framework (MAAF) to support multi-robot, multi-human teams in performing specialized tactical maneuvers. I would like to pursue a career in development of intelligent systems and autonomous/semi-autonomous systems that can be deployed in the real world and serve practical, useful applications.

 

My detailed résumé can be found here.
