Experience never gets old

I'm known to be observant, impartial, articulate, good with root cause analysis and ideation. I care about following best practices and creating an environment where people can improve. I'm more productive in evenings than mornings, and I still build hobby projects to solve little problems.

Masters Degree in Machine Learning at MSRUAS

Was the first ranker in my class and I got admission to this course by clearing the difficult computer science GATE exam in the first attempt. 

 

Computational Intelligence (Evolutionary intelligence algorithms like PSO), Neural Networks, Statistical Detection and Estimation, Image Processing, Pattern Recognition, Data Mining, Applied Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing

At C-DAC

C-DAC brought the internet to India and built India's first supercomputer. We were taught by some very capable researchers. My Post Graduation Diploma in Software also involved passing the dreaded MGPT's.

Object Oriented Programming, Datastructures, Computer Organization and Operating Systems, Computer Networks, Database Management Systems, Object Oriented Analysis and Design. Software Engineering. Web Technologies.

Extra-curricular

Was well known for winning at competitions.

2024 update: The severity of my eye strain and the fact that since 2018 (or earlier) there seems to be a worsening of contamination of various foods, it has left me in a poor state of health. The resulting sleep loss and poor nutrition significantly affected my ability to work. Any pointers regarding more reliable sources of food and workplaces with an understanding culture and slower pace of work, would be of help.
