About me

I am Pranay Thangeda, a PhD candidate in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I work with Prof. Melkior Ornik in the Learning, Autonomy, Decision, and Control (LEADCAT) Lab.

I’m passionate about intelligent and autonomous systems and my current research interests include the broad areas of optimization, reinforcement learning, resource allocation in large-scale systems, and decision making under uncertainty. More recently, I have been working on developing algorithms for autonomous extra-terrestrial exploration.

If you have any questions or something to discuss, you can email me at my personal email [email protected] or my Illinois email [email protected].
