The question that drives me is to understand how intelligence emerges from the structure of its underlying substrate which will help me build intelligent systems. I combine the understandings from neuroscience, machine learning, electrical engineering and device physics in a co-design fashion towards building low-power and high-density intelligent systems. These systems have applications in a variety of autonomous sensory-motor systems/agents on the edge, capable of real-time inference and online learning.
