Welcome

Hi, I am an AI researcher interested in experimenting new research and rapid prototyping to make models production-ready.


Currently working as a Architect in Samsung R&D Bangalore. Prior to this worked as Senior Research scientist in Zapr Media Labs , Machine Learning Scientist in Apple, Cambridge, UK, and did my PostDoc in the Department of Computer science, University of Crete, Greece, under Prof Yannis Stylianou.


I completed my Ph.D. degree from the Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, in 2017. I worked under the guidance of Prof. S R Mahadeva Prasanna. Before that, I worked as a Software Engineer in Alcatel Lucent India Private Limited, Bengaluru. I received my B.E. degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from the University Visvesvaraya College of Engineering, Bengaluru, India, in 2008.


Research

My area of research is applying Machine Learning techniques for Speech and Audio Signals. Currently, I am Developing an end-to-end solution for Conversational AI for the applications like Voice bots and Voice audit analytics. Before this, I worked in developing multiple Speech processing algorithms for speech enhancement, speech synthesis (TTS), Speech recognition (ASR), Emotion Recognition, and Language Identification. In particular, I worked on improving the quality of Speech synthesis and Speech recognition using both signal processing and deep learning approaches. 

Research interests: Machine learning, Signal Processing, Speech Processing

Resume is available here. For more information about my projects can be found on the Projects page.

Apart from research: I like to engage in physical activities such as table tennis, swimming, traveling, long drives, and trekking to keep myself fresh. Apart from this, I am also an avid reader, mainly interested in non-fiction books.
