Just a Brief on Me


I am currently into computational cognition and neuroscience intertwined with informatics (mostly machine learning). My previous experiences include working with a start up on data science driven embedded intelligent systems and modeling knowledge-based expert system in a research lab. My research focus is broadly AI in healthcare.

Personal

A reticent individual, mostly stoic. A critique straight out of 'The Argumentative Indian'. Thrives on procastination and intermittent levity. Largely shaped by a game, and life in three cities.

Edinburgh

Scotland, UK

Amidst the scottish highlands, a few miles from Edinburgh.

New Delhi

India

At Rajpath, the heart of Indian democracy in New Delhi.

Patna

Bihar, India

Celebrating Chatt Puja, a regional festival elemental to the city of Patna.

Cricket

Sports

After a losing cause.

Anecdotes

George Orwell has written enough to tell, 'why people write'. But I am not a writer and mine are infrequent tiny scribbles where I try to reason and reflect on the accumulated understandings.
