Hi! I'm a computer science & economics undergrad at BITS Pilani, Goa interested in ml+sys.

I'm advised by Prof. Arnab Paul at the Data, Systems and High Performance Computing (DaSH) Lab where I work on decentralized federated learning across organizations*. I also worked with Prof. Ahmed Sayed at Queen Mary University of London on improving fairness through mutual information based federated learning* and with e6data on developing AI-enabled databases.

I'm also affiliated with APPCAIR where I work with Prof. Ashwin Srinivasan, Prof. Tanmay Verlekar and Dr. Manasi Patwardhan (TCS Research) on enhancing LLM-based multi-modal multi-document scientific QA. Previosuly, I spent a summer at UST Innovation Labs building ViT-based RL algorithms for autonomous mobile robots.

i use arch endeavour btw

In my free time, I enjoy reading, gaming, binging shows (at 1.95x) and learning the lyrics to what's on the radio. @eigengravy most places on the internet. I have an Erdős number of 4.
