Hi! I am a first-year PhD student in the Department of Computer Science, at the University of Maryland, advised by Prof. Abhinav Shrivastava. Previous to this, I worked as a Research Associate with Adobe Research, Bangalore, India lab. My research interests primarily revolve around computer vision, particularly in the field of controllable synthesis of visual content such as images, videos, and graphic designs.
I graduated from IIIT Bangalore, India, in 2022 with a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Computer Science Engineering with a specilization in
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. During my undergraduate study, I spent three months as a research intern at
Adobe Research, India where I worked with Dr. Balaji Vasan Srinivasan and Dr. Stefano Petrangeli on document to video
tranformation, which involved image/video retreival and re-ranking techniques, along with sequence optimization probmens.
Research Interests: Computer Vision, Controllable and Multimodal Image Generation, Video Generation, Machine Learning
