I am an Assistant Professor at Plaksha University and my research interests are aligned in the directions of AI for Social Good, Game Theory and Mechanism Design, Data Analytics, and Graph Theory. I completed my M.Tech. in Computer Science from IIT-Kanpur in 2008 where, under the guidance of Prof. SK Mehta, I worked on extending the Gallai Edmonds Structure Theorem to Infinite Graphs. After 9 years in the industry performing diverse tasks such as building firmware, video conferencing tools, EDA tools, and search engines and business development, I joined the Ph.D. program in the Department of Computer Science and Automation at the Indian Institute of Science in August 2017. After completing my Ph.D. under the guidance of Prof. Y Narahari I continued my work in the GRAMA project as a Research Associate, where we applied AI and Game Theory techniques in Digital Agriculture. In particular, the focus was on price prediction, crop recommendation, crop simulation, and market design problems using AI techniques and Game Theory.Â
