Bio:
I am a Ph.D. student at Department of Computer Science, IIT Delhi. I am interested in Reinforcement Learning, Deep Planning and Statistical Relational Learning. In my first three years of Ph.D., I have worked on exploiting symmetries in Probabilistic Graphical Models(PGMs) under the guidance of Prof. Parag Singla where we developed Lifted Inference techniques in PGMs to exploit symmetries to solve Marginal-MAP inference in Markov Logic. Presently, I am working on neuro-symbolic learning under the supervision of Prof. Parag Singla and co-advised by Prof. Mausam. I am supported by TCS Research Scholar Fellowship Program. Before joining here I worked at Oracle India as Application Developer.
