My work interests are Machine Learning, Computer Vision and Optimization. I write code that makes software intelligent, some people call it "Artificial Intelligence". I also enjoy the mathematical modeling of real life problem. I am currently working with an visual AI startup to build an smart sketching tool with AI assistance. What now seems like aeons ago, I completed my Master's from IIIT Hyderabad and B.Tech from IIIT Vadodara. Please feel free to connect, if you have an interesting problem to discuss and brainstorm.
