Introduction

Hi, I am Subhransu Sekhar Bhattacharjee (Bangla: শুভ্রাংশু-শেখর ভট্টাচার্য), nickname: Rudra (রুদ্র). I am an international research scholar at ANU since April 2023, originally from West Bengal, India.

Doctoral Research

My research focuses on autonomous spatio-semantic reasoning under uncertainty, supervised by Dr. Rahul Shome, Dr. Dylan Campbell, and Prof. Stephen Gould.

See our latest work published in CVPR 2025: Unobserved Object Detection.

Education

I graduated with First Class Honours in Mechatronic Systems at ANU, minoring in Electronic Communication Systems and Mathematics. My honours thesis, advised by Prof. Ian Petersen, was titled "Whiplash Inertial Gradient Inertial Dynamics," and was later published as a journal paper J1. You can find the complete version here.

Research Interests

My research interests are centered around autonomous systems, spatial computing and optimization theory.

1. Building robust active vision solutions for field robotics and autonomous systems
2. Solving noisy inverse problems with deep learning in physics-based or financial models
3. Developing optimization algorithms tailored for energy-efficient GPU computing

Hobbies

I enjoy traveling, playing chess, hunting for forgotten books and cinema, exploring bone music, sketching and painting, mixing cocktails, unusual hikes, swimming, and listening to thriller audiobooks.
