A little bit about me :
I am a final-year PhD candidate at the Department of Computer Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison. I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Eftychios Sifakis. My interests lie in the intersection of Differentiable Simulation and High-performance computing. My PhD research is focused on synergistic integration of deep learning in physics-based modeling and simulation. Specifically, I have experience in designing fast and efficient solutions for problems in 3D vision, physics-based deep learning and scientific computing.
I am currently seeking full-time industry positions where I can apply my skills in designing scalable and differentiable pipelines. I'm open to opportunities that will both utilize my current skills and help me learn more. If you're looking for a simple example to understand what differentiable pipelines might be, you can take a look at this one: Learning edge detection operators
Before coming to the US, I graduated with a B.Tech in Computer Science from National Institute of Technology Karnataka (NITK), India. I also worked for a year at Adobe, India.
In my free time, I like hiking & biking. I also make it a point to try out new baking recipes. Feel free to contact me if you want some nice trail suggestions in Madison or some yummy recipes!
