Biography

Hello! I am a master’s student at UBC, Vancouver working on deep kernel-based representation learning for computer vision applications under the supervision of Dr. D.J. Sutherland. I am also working with Dr. Amir Zamir in the Visual Intelligence and Learning Lab at EPFL on learning sparse representations of articulated objects from videos and optical flow to create robotic object models.

Prior to starting grad school, I was a research fellow at Wadhwani AI for two years where I was involved in the research and development of an AI-powered visual screening tool to detect low birth-weight (<2.5kg) babies in rural India where primary healthcare is inadequate. I have also interned at Microsot Research India's Applied Sciences group on prototyping machine learning techniques to identify highly imbalanced P.I.I. attributes from massive customer databases for the EU GDPR mandate.
