If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?
Brief Bio
I am currently a PhD candidate at Department of Computer Science in Stony Brook Univeristy. From fall 2018 I’m working in the Computer Vision Lab under the supervision of Prof. Dimitris Samaras, Prof. Minh Hoai and Prof. Joel Saltz.
Prior to this, I received my master degree from National Institute of Technology, Calicut, India in 2016 advised by Prof. Sudeep K S.
Research Interest: I work on research problems in Computer Vision and Machine Learning. I am especially interested in the field of using Unsupervised techniques for performing object detection and Fine Grained Classification.
Industry Experience: I have worked as Senior Software Developer in Cisco for 2 years and prior to that I have almost two years experience in Wipro Technologies as a Project Engineer.
