About

I am pursuing PhD in Computer Science at the University of Utah under the supervision of Prof. Suresh Venkatasubramanian. My research focuses broadly on the area of algorithmic fairness. Typically machine learning systems are trained on datasets that are produced or collected by us, therefore has all sorts of human biases. Our research tries to invent ways to quantify presence and extent of such biases and find novel algorithms to mitigate undesired effects originiating from those in decisions made by machine learning algorithms.

Here is my resume.

• Teaching Assistant for Advanced Algorithms (CS 6150), responsible for grading and creating problem sets, Fall 2015.
• Worked as a Research Scientist Intern at Adobe Systems Incorporated from May-August, 2015.
• Teaching Assistant for Undergraduate Algorithms (CS 4150), held office hours and graded problem sets and exams, Spring 2015.
• Teaching Assitant for Computer Systems (CS 4400), held lab hours and graded problem sets, projects and exams, Fall 2014.
