About me
I am an AI Researcher and an IIT Kharagpur graduate with experience in computer vision, robotics, IoT, and computational chemistry. At the Autonomous Ground Vehicle (Autonomy and Intelligence) Research group, I worked on embedded systems, ROS, Computer Vision, 3D Reconstruction, and SLAM. With the collaboration of a few peers in the group, we published our research on entity augmentation techniques for vertical federated learning at the GLOW@International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence.
As the Project Lead for Steel Eye, I developed a real-time ladle tracking system for steel plants where I worked on object detection and recognition pipelines for industry deployment, along with building a web interface integrated with an SQL chatbot for plant operators. During my research internship at Laboratoire Hubert Curien in France, funded by the prestigious Charpak Lab Scholarship, I engineered a state-of-the-art compression algorithm for JSON-LD data, improving the efficiency of constrained web applications through significant network overhead reduction.
I've also explored the intersection of AI and materials engineering, developing machine learning interatomic potentials for tungsten and gallium arsenide to enable scalable molecular dynamics simulations of radiation damage. Always eager to explore new frontiers in AI research and collaborate on projects that push technological boundaries.
Resume
Experience
Computer Vision Research Intern
Sept 2025 - Dec 2025
Akridata
- Built a Python document parsing module leveraging metadata-based extractors, Gemini, and LandingAI agentic workflow
- Automated the conversion of legacy inspection documents into a retrieval-optimized knowledge base for Akridata’s platform
Mechatronics and Vision Team Lead
Jul 2022 - Apr 2025
Autonomous Ground Vehicle: Autonomy & Intelligence Research Group
- Engineered a novel entity augmentation technique for vertical federated learning, achieving a 69.5% accuracy on ResNet-18 trained on the CIFAR-10 dataset with 5% entity alignment, significantly outperforming traditional VFL approaches
- Led the design and experimental validation of the Mixup-VFL framework. Guided a research team to implement novel label-mixing strategies that successfully utilized unaligned data, achieving up to a 72% reduction in RMSE for regression tasks with only 20% aligned data.
- Directed an internal research initiative to deconstruct and reproduce dynamic scene 3D reconstruction methods such as HexPlane and 4D Gaussian Splatting
Charpak Lab Scholar
May 2024 - Jul 2024
Laboratoire Hubert Curien, Universite Jean Monnet
- Have been awarded the prestigious Charapak Lab Scholarship by the French Insititute in India (IFI) for the internship
- Worked on the Constrained Semantic Web of Things project funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR)
- Engineered a State-of-the-art compression algorithm for JSON-LD data that provides savings of up to 95.1% in terms of network overhead
- Developed a Python library to facilitate efficient encoding and decoding of JSON-LD data using our novel compression algorithm
- Enhanced algorithm efficiency by integrating a Char-RNN to compress unstructured text strings using arithmetic coding
Founding Member
Jan 2024 - Apr 2025
Student Satellite Program IIT Kharagpur
