About Me
I am an Assistant Professor in the School of Computer Science, at University College Dublin (UCD). I am also an Institute Member of UCD Earth Institute, and an SFI Funded Investigator with ADAPT SFI Research Centre, Dublin.
I lead the THE visIon and Analytics lab (THEIA) at UCD. Our research interests primarily lie in the area of computer vision, image processing, and remote sensing. Leveraging techniques from statistical machine learning and deep learning, we tackle interdisciplinary computational problems in diverse fields, including digital multimedia, atmospheric research, coastal monitoring, and solar and renewable energy.
I graduated with a B.Tech from National Institute of Technology Silchar, India summa cum laude in 2010. Post graduation, I worked with Ericsson India as a network engineer from 2010 to 2012. Then I went on to complete my Ph.D. from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore in 2017. From Aug-Dec 2015, I was a visiting Doctoral Assistant at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland. From 2017 till 2019, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at Trinity College Dublin. I was also an Associate Faculty at School of Computing, National College of Ireland, Dublin during 2018-2019.
