He heads the Machine Intelligence Signals and Networks (MISN) lab at IIT Delhi. His current research focuses on graphical models, manifolds, semi-supervised learning, and large-scale optimization. He received his M.Tech and Ph.D. degrees from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kanpur, and completed his postdoc from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
Research: I supervise the Machine Intelligence Signals and Networks (MISN) Lab at IIT Delhi. The overarching theme of our research efforts lies in the coherent interaction between optimization, machine learning, signal processing, and graphical models. Specific problems of interest include:
Graph Compression
Machine Learning over non-Euclidean Spaces
Fair Federated Personalized Graph Neural Networks
Applications of Graph ML in Earth science, Neuroscience, Wireless communication, and Circuit Design
