I was advised by Prof. Adam White and Prof. Alona Fyshe. My focus was on representation learning, reinforcement learning (RL), automated hyperparameter tuning, and deploying RL in the real world.Along with Prof. Adam White, Prof. Martha White, and some MSc and PhD students, I worked on tackling a real-world industrial control task. The task was to optimize.

I was a teaching assistant for the following courses:1) Empirical Reinforcement Learning (graduate course) - CMPUT 607 Taught by: Prof. Adam White2) Machine Learning (undergraduate course) - CMPUT 296 Taught by: Prof. Martha White3) Foundations of Computation (undergraduate course) - CMPUT 174Taught by: Prof. Joerg Sander, Prof. Sadaf Ahmed, and Prof..

Contributed to the efforts in building a complete framework for constructing a commonsense knowledge base from several sources on the internet. Constructed a high-quality knowledge base, of 2.26 million salient properties for 80000 concepts, which is publicly available as a research resource. Improved recall by 83% and quality (measured through a human.

By conducting MEG experiments on participants reading a stimuli text corpus, the existence of a soft correlation between the P600 event-related potential and the absolute difference of semantic associations was proven in order to study how the brain disambiguates prepositional phrase attachments. Corpus-derived co-occurrence frequencies of stimuli words.

Developed an extractive text summarizer. Designed a hybrid approach of using keyword frequencies (statistical approach) with automatically generated entity relationships (semantic approach) to combine the strengths and ameliorate the weaknesses of both approaches to generate better summaries. Achieved 16.44% increase in recall and 2.17% increase in F-score.

Along with a team, designed a data processing pipeline to run on a high performance compute cluster to synthesize images from radio interferometric data from the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). It helped to reduce the synthesis time to under a week from 2+ years. It has enabled newer cosmological insights and the creation of one of the world's.

TEDxPICT was founded with the intention of promoting social good, thoughtfulness, and discussion. Started as an informal college-level discussion group, it is now an annual city-level event that hosts talks by people who transformed extraordinary ideas into reality. A global platform is provided to the local community as these talks go online. As a.
