Biography
I am currently a member of the SmartThings Team at Samsung Research , Seoul, where my work involves: 1) developing a deep learning-based indoor positioning system and 2) vectorized floorplan reconstruction from partial/noisy LiDAR maps. I am also collaborating with Prof. Sanja Fidler at Vector Institute to improve object-centric representations by using image context in a self-supervised framework. I have also worked on ways to incorporate geometrical cues to learn dense representations for scene images.
I work at the intersection of scene understanding, self-supervised learning and robotics. Some of the problems that interest me are - learning actionable representations from scene images, understanding scenes at different levels of abstraction (from pixel level up to the image level) and the hierarchical relationships among them, and the challenges in working with 3D scenes. I am also interested in self-supervised approaches that jointly consider synthesis and discriminative tasks.
I graduated from Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur in May 2021, majoring in Electrical Engineering with minors in Machine Learning. I worked on natural language processing, optimization algorithms, stochastic modelling, and wireless networks during my undergraduate days.
