About

Hi! I am currently a senior at IIIT Naya Raipur, India.
My research interests are in domains of Computer Graphics and Vision, human-motion generation with multimodal queues and most recently, 3D data (reconstruction and neural rendering). As a research intern under the guidance of Dr. Aniket Bera at Purdue University and Dr. Bhattacharya from Adobe Research, San Jose, I am currently working on problems in the domain of human-motion generation.
I have previously worked as a research intern under the guidance of Dr. Jayanta Mukhopadhyay at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur in the domain of HCI and Computer Vision, specifically in the understanding of human cognitive processes using egocentric videos and their corresponding eye-tracker gaze data.
