Published multiple papers, including works presented at ICML 2025, ICLR Workshops 2025, CVPR 2024, ICLR 2024, AAAI 2024, WACV 2024, etc.
Research Experience
A researcher at Google DeepMind India; previously led applied scientist teams at Microsoft Bing Ads in building & supporting large-scale production models of user behavior, including click & conversion prediction and user preference models & personalization.
Education
Received a Ph.D from the University of Washington, and worked in various research capacities at UW, UC San Diego, Microsoft Research, Fraunhofer Institute, and Lucent Bell Labs.
Background
Interested in architectural and algorithmic advances for making foundation models efficient (training, inference, model size, etc.) and effective (quality, elastic compute, reasoning, etc.). In recent research, addressed various practical challenges in the design of machine learning systems -- robustness, concept drift, cost-efficiency, human-AI interaction, etc. Also worked on cognition-inspired learning systems, including meta-learning, continual learning, and robust vision.
