About
I am a senior researcher in multi-disciplinary domains of Artificial Intelligence - Machine Learning, Semiconductors, Electronics, Information and Communication Technology with an overall experience of 10+ years (including my doctoral education). I have industry experience of 6+ years in the fields of technology and management besides experience in the academic research labs - MINRO at IIITB, LTRC at IIITH and MST at UniMAP. I have multiple indexed publications (Book Chapters/Journals/International Conferences) in the afore mentioned research domains with main focus on Autonomous Control, Computer Vision, Edge Computing, FPGA, Embedded Systems, Hardware Accelerators, Co-Processors etc. I have been active in R & D consulting with both academia and industry besides being a Technical Program Committee (TPC) member and reviewer with few international conferences and journals. I have received merit-based fellowships/scholarships through-out my education/career and look forward to give back to the society in terms of product innovation and technical contribution. I am member of IEEE (USA), IEICE (Japan) and RISC-V (USA). I have also delivered several talks at various national/international platforms on emerging topics of AI-ML, Hardware design and FPGA based hardware architectures.
