Hi! I am a Research Scholar at Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bangalore, working under the guidance of Dr. Prathosh A.P..
I completed my B.Tech in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Patna (IIT Patna). I aspire to become a rigorous applied probabilist. In that pursuit I keep taking a lot of courses. Further, I enjoy working on various information theoretic quantities in deep learning. Some of the areas that excite me are - bayesian learning, energy-based models, diffusion models.
In an earlier life, I worked on solving the problem of localization in indoor environment using deep learning methods. I was blessed to have Dr. Sudhir Kumar (IIT Patna) as guide during my B.Tech. I worked for about 3.5 years under him. In the course of my bachelors, I also had opportunity to collaborate with Dr. Sajal K. Das and Dr. Moustafa Youssef.
If you are interested in discussing about theoretical interpretation of deep learning models in general, please ping me I am always excited to have these sorts of discussion.
