Introduction

I received my B.Sc. (Engg.) in Electrical Engineering in 2009 from BIT Sindri Dhanbad, M.Tech. in Instrumentation in 2011 from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and PhD in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur in 2024 with research focus on algorithmic development for efficient AI models and their applications to modern industrial intelligent systems. I am currently working as an assistant professor at the school of Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering (sAIDE), IIT Ropar. I have worked as post-doctoral researcher at IIT Kanpur. There, I have worked on novel lightweight deep learning models for 6G standardization and CSI-RS overhead reduction. I have also developed new AI benchmarks for inverse design of mechanical metastructures, POC-based cross-spectral vision transformer for face biometrics, and multi-dynamics regression model for robotic arm. My research interests are inclined towards developing AI algorithms for real-time, interdisciplinary autonomous systems.
