Past Projects (2016 - 2019)

Prior to joining TIB, I worked for ~3 years as a research assistant with Dr. Saket Anand (IIITD) on Visual Wildlife Monitoring and collaborated with Wildlife Institute of India (WII), Dehradun. During this time, I worked on projects spanning individual recognition (Biometrics) and object detection/classification for patterned wildlife species, rhesus macaques and several Indian terrestrial wildlife species. In addition, I explored semi-supervised learning, explainability/uncertainty/compression (Bayesian Deep Learning) and confidence calibration with an aim to analyze and improve deep learning models to be used with real data. I also collaborated with Ankita Shukla (PhD student, IIITD) and Dr. Ryan Farrell (BYU, Utah) during my time as a research assistant.

Past Projects (2014 - 2016)

I received my master’s from IIIT, Delhi, where my thesis was about exploring mean shift clustering using metric learning, under the guidance of Dr. Saket Anand. During master’s, I also worked extensively on developing a traffic light/sign detection module for IIITD’s autonomous car project SWARATH and also mentored students to improve the module.
