I am pursuing my research master's in Computer Science at DIRO, Université de Montréal with Prof. Noam Aigerman.
My graduate research focuses on revamping neural network architectures for 3D geometry, and to be leveraged in 3D Computer Vision.
My intellectual interests lie in niches of Geometric Deep Learning, Multimodal Interaction, Self-supervised Representation Learning and Neuro-inspired AI.
I also have some experience in GPU programming (CUDA) and Quantum Computing (Qiskit).
I did my bachelor's in Computer Science and Engineering at National Institute of Technology Silchar.
I worked on text-conditioned 3D motion generation under the guidance of Dr. Arjun Chandrasekaran, from Micahel Black's group at Perceiving Systems department of Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems.
Prior to that, I completed my internship at Amazon as an Applied Scientist Intern. In 2021, I interned at ISRO advised by Dr. Santonu Goswami. I also interned at IIT Patna advised by Dr. Sriparna Saha.
I was also associated with Centre for Natural Language Processing at NIT Silchar, advised by Dr. Partha Pakray for my bachelor's thesis.
Project Lead @ ML Club, NIT Silchar.
I like indulging in open-source shared tasks and hackathons where intelligent systems can be utilized to solve problems of humanity.
If you wish to collaborate for any such innovative initiative, feel free contact me.
