I chose to study my PhD at Monash because it is a widely recognised university placing in the top 1 % globally for Computer Science . So far , my expectations have been exceeded , especially with the resources provided . I am also blown away by the incredibly open , friendly , and inclusive environment at Monash which has allowed me to interact and collaborate with people from various backgrounds .”

Currently pursuing the Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science
Soft robots are constructed out of compliant materials that give them greater flexibility in their movements , making them incredibly useful for search and rescue missions and minimally invasive surgery . However , it is analytically challenging to capture their highly non-linear behaviours . Recent works have adopted artificial intelligence ( AI ) methods but they rely heavily on large amounts of data , which can be significantly strenuous and expensive .
Shageen is working on generative models to generate realistic synthetic data , thus reducing the barrier to entry for using AI models in soft robotics .
