I routinely work with billion scale datasets to train these massive multimodal models. Previously I worked as Quantitative Researcher at Citadel where my work involved leveraging the power of Machine Learning and Statistical methods in an attempt to fathom the enigmatic world that is the financial markets. I have also worked at Amazon Alexa AI on large scale multimodal models and Embodied AI applications to bring smart robot intelligence to Alexa devices. I actively advise several early stage startups and often guest lecture at Stanford and CMU. I graduated from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur completing my Bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering and then completed my Masters in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence at the Language Technologies institute at Carnegie Mellon University. I am deeply passionate about research in my field. My research interests include: Deep Learning and it's uses in the field of Computer Vision, Speech and Music Processing and Natural Language Processing.
