PROFESSIONAL IDENTITY |

THE REAL ME |
| I completed my
Masters in EECS from MIT in 2007 (thesis). I
am a continuing PhD student, am putting together a startup (See Aspiring Minds) in the domain of Human Capital Assessment and labour inclusion. Also see my new homepage: TRY2DOIT for what other stuff I have been doing lately.
My research is
focused on development and application of powerful algorithms combining
evolutionary algorithm and machine learning techniques. I am currently designing
new algorithms for multi-objective optimization and automatic
modeling techniques for convex optimization and analyzing analog
circuits from a complex system perspective.
I am a part of the
Evo-DesignOpt Group.
My research is supervised by
Dr.
Una-May O'Reilly, who is a Principal Research Scientist at the
Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL)
at MIT.
My expertise lies in evolutionary algorithms, machine learning and analog CAD. I have
designed and applied these algorithms to multivariate regression, circuit sizing, protein
structure prediction, network coding, optimal code parallelization, oscillator
topology design, etc.
AWARD: I recently
won GOLD at HUMIES, Human Competitive Awards at GECCO 2006 for
evolutionary oscillator design. |

My
intellectual interests are attuned to study of evolutionary biology and
neurobiology; spirituality and
philosophy. As an engineer, I am interested
in numerous areas in electronics and algorithms, bio-inspired
engineering being highly inspirational to me. I keep a balance between intellectual gymnastics and real
practical work!
Ideologically, I am driven by looking
for solutions to social problems (I call them 'real problems'). I love
to know about social issues being pursued by individuals or
organizations and be a part. A few efforts of which I am an active part are
CURE
(co-founder) and
MIRG (founder).
My mother tongue, Hindi is a faithful companion in
life and writing poems, articles and stories in Hindi (English
too) is a keen hobby. I also try my hand at what I call
poetic art. Premchand, Leo Tolstoy, Anton Chekhov, Subhas Bose are some of
my favorite authors. Vivekananda and
Subhas Bose are a few
great men who have had an immense influence on my present view of life,
society and one's karma!
