Academic Achievements
  • Multiple papers accepted at WACV 2025, FG'24, CVPR'23, CVPR'24, and one paper selected as a finalist (top 3) for the ICRA 2022 Outstanding Automation Paper.
Research Experience
  • During my Ph.D., I participated in two summer internships: at GetZippin in 2022 and at Apple in 2023. My main research areas include efficient spatiotemporal representation learning techniques for videos and remote sensing data.
Education
  • Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Johns Hopkins University, advised by Prof. Vishal M. Patel.
Background
  • A Computer Vision Scientist (Engineer) at Apple, where I develop solutions to computer vision problems in the next generation of Apple devices. My research interests include spatiotemporal representation learning techniques for videos and remote sensing applications, Generative AI (particularly with diffusion models), and low-level vision tasks such as image segmentation and super-resolution.
Miscellany
  • Personal interests include hiking.
