About

A note from Arjun
Arjun Bajpai

I like understanding how things work, from circuits to algorithms, and then building with that understanding.

Right now I'm running the DreamSteam Foundation — a 501(c)(3) that funds school access, runs STEAM workshops across three countries, and donates websites to partners who need them — while co-founding AGrader.ai (approaching 10k users and 15k+ essays graded) and finishing my IB Diploma. Most of my time goes into writing code, tinkering with hardware, and figuring out ways to make education more accessible. I'm also an aspiring electrical engineer at Anduril.

The Readout, Not the Denoiser

Built per-step Integrated Gradients through the full seeded diffusion chain of an RDT robotics policy, then showed the tiny deletion score was a quadratic readout effect — not the denoiser holding the action fixed — and released a sole-author Zenodo preprint

  • Zenodo preprint
  • RDT
  • ManiSkill3
  • Cold-emailed University of Florida professor Sumit K. Jha and completed the work under his mentorship, with later review and guidance from Brian Rodriguez. Implemented Integrated Gradients from scratch across ResNet-50, ViT-B/16, TinyLlama, LLaVA-1.5-7B, then RDT-170M and RDT-1B
  • Differentiated through a fixed-seed DPM-Solver++ chain and attributed vision, language, and raw robot state at each policy call on four ManiSkill3 tasks, with multi-seed checks. Vision ranking held up; language insertion did not
  • Direct action-space tests found small but nonzero displacement at every tested solver depth and no progressive contraction from depth 2 to 20. The near-zero canonical score squares a self-referenced change and averages it over 512 action entries
  • Model-randomization sanity failed on frozen and full-backbone checks. Shuffling the input was the test that actually dropped vision ranking correlations
  • Found mixed-seed attribution sidecars, excluded the contaminated files, repaired naming, and reproduced the main completeness, vision-faithfulness, and standard-sanity verdicts on a clean seed-tagged rerun
  • Released the pipeline, records, verification tools, and the preprint at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.22133507

Simlanka PVT LTD

Built Braceys end to end for Simlanka PVT LTD: native iOS and Android patient apps, an iOS widget extension, a public site, orthodontist and admin portals, a Supabase backend, and four Edge Functions — 146,808 physical lines across 947 tracked paths and 359 commits

  • Implemented mode-aware workflows for aligners, braces, and retainers: wear tracking, plans and reminders, guided progress photos, before/after and time-lapse views, realtime chat, emergency reporting, patient exports, clinic linking, and practitioner verification
  • Engineered the 3D smile-capture stack: a Metal-accelerated TrueDepth TSDF pipeline on iOS with USDZ/GLB export, an ARCore depth/GLB pipeline on Android, and a browser viewer for longitudinal visual records — not diagnosis or clinical measurement
  • Designed a Supabase/Postgres system with 30 RLS-enabled tables, private media storage, Realtime, atomic account deletion, APNs/FCM and payload-free web push, plus server-verified OnePay settlement; deployed the public site on Cloudflare
  • Validated 770 core checks, 634 iOS XCTest cases with zero failures, 146 passing Playwright cases, and a successful Android Gradle rerun; the mobile apps are release-configured and locally tested, while the web app and backend are live
  • Preparing an end-of-2026 rollout at Havelock Dental Center and Align Dental Care's Ward Place clinic, both in Colombo, Sri Lanka — six orthodontists per clinic, each managing 20+ patients, for an initial projected reach of 240+ patients

The Readout, Not the Denoiser

Seven months from a cold email to a preprint. I rebuilt Integrated Gradients, made a stochastic 1B robotics policy differentiable end to end, and spent months testing an attractive explanation — that the denoiser was holding the action fixed. Direct action measurements flipped the title. The tiny deletion score was a quadratic readout of a small but nonzero change, not evidence the denoiser held the action still. A seed collision almost blessed a result that never happened; that result came out. What remains is the work: a from-scratch Integrated Gradients pipeline, per-step records on four ManiSkill3 tasks, the verification tools, and a sole-author Zenodo preprint.
