Bio I am currently a 4th-year PhD candidate from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of South Florida. My advisors are Dr. Sudeep Sarkar and Dr. Anuj Srivastava and my research interests broadly span topics in computer vision and machine learning. In particular, my PhD research is focused on employing algebraic structures from Grenander’s general pattern theory to provide structural representation and probabilistic inference models of semantic structures from videos. This summer, I am a research scientist intern at PARC/Xerox working on the design of algorithms for optimization of object models for detection and recognition tasks. CV
