Researcher | Dreamer | Computer Enthusiast | Believer in the power of Artificial Intelligence
I am presently working as an Applied Research Scientist at Facebook AI research, working on building Multimodal foundational generative AI models. I am also interested in the domain of self supervised learning. I have published 45+ papers across top AI conferences like NeurIPS, CVPR, ACL, EMNLP, TMLR, ICLR, NAACL, COLM, WACV, Interspeech among others garnering over 7000+ citations.
I routinely work with billion scale datasets to train these massive multimodal models. Previously I worked as Quantitative Researcher at Citadel where my work involved leveraging the power of Machine Learning and Statistical methods in an attempt to fathom the enigmatic world that is the financial markets. I have also worked at Amazon Alexa AI on large scale multimodal models and Embodied AI applications to bring smart robot intelligence to Alexa devices. I actively advise several early stage startups and often guest lecture at Stanford and CMU.
I graduated from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur completing my Bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering and then completed my Masters in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence at the Language Technologies institute at Carnegie Mellon University.
I am deeply passionate about research in my field. My research interests include: Deep Learning and it's uses in the field of Computer Vision, Speech and Music Processing and Natural Language Processing.
My goal in life is to use technology to make this world a better place for everyone to live in. It is with this goal in mind that I work on several interesting projects which help me realize this dream, one step at a time.
I have had the good fortune of working with some amazing people at some fantastic places and have learnt a lot from them. I hope to continue learning, travelling to new places and meeting new people.
My mantra in life is- "Live life with passion - Love what you do, do what you love".
Besides being a Technology enthusiast, I am also very passionate about sports. I was a part of the IIT Kanpur Aquatics team and love to swim, play Water Polo, Soccer and Cricket.
I am also an ardent traveler and love exploring new places and cultures and love travelling the world making new friends on the way.
