I am interested in automatic information retrieval from South Asian music, experimenting with tools and techniques to make computers learning classical music from Indian subcontinent. Links to some recent work appear below:

I also like to work in areas related to embedded high performance computing, enabling optimized implementations of math, signal, controls and image processing software functions at a systems level.
