Masters (MS by research) in Computer Science at
IIIT-Hyderabad, India. I am affiliated to
Data Science and Analytics Centre (DSAC) and advised by
Dr. Vikram Pudi.
My present research work is about exploring the use of full-text information for a richer representation and understanding of academic literature and citation networks in Computer Science domain. Apart from this, I am interested in solving various real world problems with machine learning techniques.

Computer Vision Engineer I worked as a computer vision engineer for the iOS platform. My job was implementing back-end algorithms and their required updates and maintenance. Some specifics about my work over there include:
Hand Gesture Recognition, Motion Analysis from video, Digital Image manipulation and enhancements. |
Education
Projects
Aug 2016 - Oct 2016 Python, Keras Deep Learning
|
DeepSecure: User Identification via Keystroke Patterns Implemented deep neural network architectures to learn interactions between keystroke patterns thus helping in user identification and user recognition. |
Dec 2015 - Aug 2016 Python, Torch Deep Learning
|
Academic author embedding using Link and Text information and Representaion Learning Trained a neural network to get vector embeddings for authors using negative sampling similar to in word2vec to get novel feature representations for both authors and papers in academic networks. |
May 2015 - Dec 2015 Python, NLTK Text Mining
|
Mining Competing Algorithms from Scholarly Articles Used unsupervised techniques to extract out competing algorithm names and proposed a novel approach for algorithm name and paper reference number linking in Computer Science papers. |
Mar 2015 - May 2015 Python, Scikit-learn Web mining
|
Web Artifact scoring in Social Networks Implemented search engine on Wikipedia from scratch. Extracted text content from social artifact links using python crawlers. For non-linked artifacts, applied k-means clustering and k-nearest
neighbor matching to get top articles from Wikipedia. Computed scores based on likes, shares, retweets, favorites etc per artifact. |
Sep 2014 - Dec 2014 Python, Torch, Scikit-learn Deep Learning
|
Object Recognition, Image Classification Performed Image classification on the CIFAR-10 dataset. Used SIFT, HOG features with visual bag of words techniques and a SVM classifier to create a baseline. Then used Convolutional Neural Networks to achieve state-of-the art in classification performance. |
Aug 2014 - Nov 2014 Python, Scikit-learn Data Mining
|
Bike Sharing Demand Used supervised machine learning techniques like Random Forests and Gradient Boosted Trees to predict the number of bike riders on a given day based on historical climate and logistic data. |
Mar 2013 - Apr 2014 Objective-C, Open-CV Computer Vision
|
Insta Fusion, Wrap Cam, Wrap Frame Implemented touch based algorithms for iOS devices to perform basic image manipulations, enhancements. Implemented a touch based Image warping feature and digital stroboscopy which creates a motion trail photo for moving objects in given video clip. |
Jun 2012 - Mar 2013 Objective-C, Open-CV Computer Vision
|
Box the Bag Used supervised learning techniques to detect hand skin color for video segmentation and then detect circular hand motion from the segmented video, all in real-time front camera enabled smartphone devices. |
