About me

I am passionate about bringing machine learning to a practical level where it is a product that solves problems for people.

2022 - Present

Currently I am working at an AI startup Cogent Labs, whose primary goal is to power productivity with Artificial Intelligence. Cogent Labs has been in the list of LinkedIn Top Startups 2021 for the three consecutive years. Currently my work is majorly focused in one of our top products called SmartRead.

I was working in the Global Innovation Unit of NEC Corporation, Japan as an AI researcher. I was responsible for extending the boundaries of research in the field of Automated Negotiation. My work fell under the intersection of domains of Automated Negotiation, Reinforcement Learning, and Deep Learning.

Moreover, I’m also a member of the group of experts of the United Nations Centre for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT). I actively participate in the public debate for the disclosure and sustainable development of technology.

Previously I worked as Research Assistant in Control and Computing lab in IIT Bombay. I majorly worked on novel algebraic solvers for solving boundary control problems of real-world applications governed by partial differential equations. During that time, I also completed my Masters in Control and Computing from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay.My major interests are in the domain of data science, machine learning, deep learning, and reinforcement learning.
