Bio

I am a P.h.D. student in computer science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst advised by Professor Andrew McCallum. I am a member of the Information Extraction and Synthesis Laboratory. My research focuses on machine learning and natural language processing. I received my Master's degree from Indian Institute of Science in 2018 where I was a part of MALL Lab advised by Professor Partha Talukdar . I also had a wonderful time working with Dr. Tijmen Tieleman in Minds.ai in 2018.

Research Interests

Representation Learning, Knowledge Base reasoning, Geometric Embedding.
