Abhinav Gupta is a Perception Software Engineer at Mach9. They is proficient in English. Colleagues describe them as "Abhinav has very impressive breadth and depth of ML knowledge and considerations for its practical application, which he was able to put into practice and extend during his internship at NREC. He joined one of our project teams and worked alongside the other team members in the role of an ML engineer, helping to make improvements to a 3D object detector being developed for an agricultural product. He produced great documentation of literature review and algorithm details as we evaluated alternate approaches, and he designed an approach to self-supervised learning to work within the constraints of our application and leverage large amounts of unlabeled data to adapt to new domains. Abhinav was a great addition to our team who had a substantial impact on pushing forward the ML development on the project in his short time here."
