Ria Doshi
PhD @ Stanford · AI/Robotics
I'm a CS PhD student at Stanford University, grateful to be advised by Jeannette Bohg. My research focuses on building generalist, embodied intelligence. I completed my undergrad at UC Berkeley, where I was fortunate to be advised by Sergey Levine. I also spent a lovely summer working on autonomous driving models at Wayve AI. My research is supported by the NDSEG Fellowship and the Stanford Graduate Fellowship.
I'm always happy to chat about research or otherwise — feel free to reach out and say hi!

Work
ML Research Intern, Wayve AI
My work focused on building LINGO, towards a vision-language-action model for autonomous driving. I was involved with building a large-scale inference pipeline using Kubernetes, improving road-signal perception capabilities, and data curation for referential segmentation.

ML Consultant, Spyne AI
I developed high-fidelity, 3D renderings of cars using NERF models for smarter, more efficient online marketing. Implemented interpolation & feature matching techniques for output consistency across varying input dimensions.

Author, The Code Detectives Book Series
I've always loved reading mystery novels, especially when I was younger... so I decided to write two of my own :) The Code Detectives is about two friends who use coding & AI to solve neighborhood mysteries. Writing the books was an eye-opening and pretty cool experience.

I also love basketball and frequently cheer on the Golden State Warriors!
