Arpan Mukherjee

I am a final year PhD student at the Department of Electrical, Computer and Systems Engineering (ECSE), Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), advised by Prof. Ali Tajer. Prior to joining RPI, I have spent two wonderful years at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, where I was advised by Prof. Mrityunjoy Chakraborty.

I am broadly interested in sequential experimental design. My research has mainly focused on multi-armed bandits and active learning. On a high level, I work on devising robust, efficient and optimal algorithms for sequential decision making problems, such as best arm identification and regret minimization. In another life, I used to work on adaptive filters and digital signal processing.
