Academic Achievements
- Published multiple papers in top conferences such as NeurIPS, ICML, UAI, and journals like IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems. Involved in various research projects including federated learning, optimization algorithms, etc.
Research Experience
- Research Scientist at Google Research.
Education
- PhD in Computer Science from UT Austin, advised by Prof. Sujay Sanghavi and Prof. Inderjit S. Dhillon. B.Tech. and M.Tech. degrees in Electrical Engineering from IIT Bombay, worked with Prof. Subhasis Chaudhuri and received the Undergraduate Research Award.
Background
- Interested in developing provably better optimization algorithms and generalization-improving techniques for machine learning, especially under data-centric constraints such as restricted data access, poor data quality, computational limits imposed by large-scale data, and beyond. Likes to develop theoretically grounded ML algorithms.
Miscellany
- Finished 2nd in the public leaderboard and 3rd in the private leaderboard (Team name: Invincibles) in the iFood Challenge, FGVC Workshop, CVPR 2018. Invited to present the method at CVPR 2018.
