Hi there, I'm Christo Mathew ๐Ÿ‘‹

๐Ÿค– Applied AI & Agent Engineer

Building the robots that learn by doing

Bridging the gap between High-Level Planning (LLMs) and Low-Level Control (RL)

Portfolio LinkedIn Hugging Face


๐ŸŽฏ My Mission

I'm on a mission to build intelligent agents that don't just thinkโ€”they act. While the world obsesses over bigger language models, I'm engineering the control systems that turn AI thoughts into real-world actions.

๐ŸŽ“ Master's @ Rutgers University | ๐Ÿ”ฌ Research Assistant @ DIMACS

"The future of AI isn't just about what it can understandโ€”it's about what it can do."


๐Ÿš€ What Drives Me

The "Brain-Body" Problem

The industry has built incredible AI "brains" (GPT-4, Claude, Gemini), but who's building the body?

That's where I come in. I architect the real-time control stacks that:

  • โšก Bridge 100ms LLM planning with 60Hz physics control loops
  • ๐ŸŽฎ Turn abstract goals into precise motor commands
  • ๐Ÿ”„ Learn from interaction, not just supervision
  • ๐Ÿ—๏ธ Scale from simulation to reality

๐Ÿ”ฅ Current Projects

๐Ÿง โžก๏ธ๐Ÿฆพ Hierarchical RL Systems

Building hybrid intelligence architectures where:

  • GPT-4 decomposes high-level tasks ("make coffee")
  • TQC agents execute continuous control (grasp, pour, place)
  • Asynchronous pipelines eliminate control latency

Impact: Achieved 50% better generalization on manipulation tasks

โšก Real-Time AI for Robotics

Engineering multi-threaded Python systems that:

  • Decouple blocking LLM API calls from physics loops
  • Maintain stable 60Hz control in MuJoCo environments
  • Handle sensor fusion and state estimation in real-time

๐ŸŽฏ Object-Centric RL

Designing compositional state representations that:

  • Decompose scenes into objects and relationships
  • Enable zero-shot generalization to novel configurations
  • Published findings on arXiv

๐Ÿ’ก Philosophy

while True:
    observe()
    think()  # LLMs for reasoning
    act()    # RL for execution
    learn()  # Continuous improvement

The best AI systems learn from experience, not just data.
