# Arin Weling

> Electrical engineer working across intelligent hardware, robotics, and reliable machine learning.

I'm an electrical engineer from IIT Bombay and an incoming M.S. student in Electrical Engineering at Stanford. My work spans semiconductor devices, hardware verification, robotics, and machine-learning systems, with experience in 3D NAND reliability, AI-assisted hardware debugging, and autonomous robots.

## Projects

- [Covert Channels & Secure Cache Partitioning](https://arinweling.pages.dev/projects/covert-channels.md): Building cache side-channels to transmit images and audio across cores — then defending against them.
- [Falsification-Driven Robust Training](https://arinweling.pages.dev/projects/falsification-robust-training.md): Using adversarial falsification to expand certified robustness radii by 48%.
- [Intelligent & Learning Agents](https://arinweling.pages.dev/projects/learning-agents.md): Bandit algorithms, MDP solvers, and a Minimax chess agent.
- [S.N.A.S.H. Morphobot](https://arinweling.pages.dev/projects/morphobot.md): A ground-to-air morphing robot that transitions between drive and flight modes in five seconds.
- [Superscalar Out-of-Order CPU](https://arinweling.pages.dev/projects/superscalar-cpu.md): A superscalar, out-of-order processor designed and validated on an FPGA.
- [AstroTinker Bot](https://arinweling.pages.dev/projects/astrotinker-bot.md): An FPGA-driven miniature robot built for e-Yantra, from RISC CPU up to path planning.
- [Inverted Pendulum & Noise Cancellation](https://arinweling.pages.dev/projects/control-systems-lab.md): LQR stabilisation of an inverted pendulum, and 20 dB of active noise attenuation.
- [Centralised Intelligence for Dynamic Swarm Navigation](https://arinweling.pages.dev/projects/swarm-navigation.md): Multi-agent path planning that keeps a robot swarm collision-free around moving obstacles.
