About
I recently completed my M.Sc. by Research in Electronics and Communication Engineering at IIIT Hyderabad, where I conducted research on Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), particularly in the areas of dynamic graphs, uncertainty quantification, and high-stakes decision-making, under the guidance of Prof. Charu Sharma and Prof. Naresh Manwani at the Machine Learning Lab.
I recently completed a Google Summer of Code project with INCF, developing dynamic graph neural networks for modeling C. elegans development.
I completed my Bachelor of Technology in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur. Following my graduation, I briefly worked as an Engineer at Vikram Solar Limited, contributing to production optimization projects.
