Hi, I'm Pragya Rathal 👋

Undergraduate researcher at IIT (BHU) working at the intersection of
Machine Learning, Robotics, Signal Processing, and Wireless Systems.

🔬 Research Interests

  • Federated & Distributed Learning
  • Computer Vision & Vision-Language Models
  • LiDAR Perception & Autonomous Navigation
  • EMG Signal Processing & Motor-State Forecasting
  • Reinforcement Learning for Wireless / UAV Systems

🚀 Selected Work

🔹 TopoCo / Hierarchical Federated Learning
Topology-adaptive federated learning for UAV-IoT networks using primal-dual optimization, adaptive compression, dynamic client participation, and topology-aware client selection.

🔹 EMG Gait Forecasting
Muscle-synergy-based anticipatory gait forecasting using NMF, synergy dynamics, and neural sequence models.

🔹 LiDAR Traversability
ROS2/LiDAR perception pipeline using Patchwork++ and terrain analysis for autonomous navigation and traversability estimation.

🔹 UAV-RIS Reinforcement Learning
Deep reinforcement learning for joint optimization of RIS configuration, UAV positioning, transmit power, and wireless energy harvesting.
