About me

I am a PhD student in the Department of Computational & Data Sciences at the Indian Institute of Science Bangalore. Prior to this, I have worked as a Data Scientist in IBM India Pvt. Ltd after completing my Masters in Computer Science & Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur.

During my stay in IBM, I have worked on a question answering project which would read a corpus, accept questions from the user on the corpus, and output point answers. I have also worked on other NLP projects in my leisure hours, like sentiment classification.

As a novice PhD student working with Prof. Venkatesh Babu, I am presently learning the basics of Machine Learning and Deep Learning for Computer Vision and hope to make significant contributions to the same. I am associated with the wonderful group of people (and researchers) at VAL Lab.

Academics takes up most of time. However, listening to the music of the good old days (especially Hindi and Bengali music of 50s to 90s ) is one of my favourite past times. For more of my academic projects check out my GitHub page.
