PhD Student Courant Institute New York University
I'm a PhD student in computer science at New York University's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences advised by Prof. He He. I work on Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing, and I am affiliated with the Machine Learning for Language (ML2) research group.
I am broadly interested in robust language understanding -- making sure that our models are not relying on spurious correlations and generalize well on out-of-distribution data. I have also been excited about the recent developments in large language models and scaling, and trying to empirically understand some of the phenomena that we see. My research is graciously supported by a NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.
Previously, I spent four amazing years as an undergraduate at IIT Bombay where I majored in Computer Science and Engineering. I did a few years of research at the CSALT Lab working with Prof. Preethi Jyothi . I've also spent time at NEC Labs Princeton and UNC Chapel Hill where I worked with Prof. Mohit Bansal.
