I am a PhD student as a member of the RTG 2853 Neuroexplicit Models of Language, Vision, and Action since November 2023. I am part of the ‘Computer Vision and Machine Learning’ group, Max Planck Institute for Informatics (MPI-INF), Saarland supervised by Prof. Bernt Schiele and co-supervised by Prof. Alexander Koller. During my PhD, I aim to understand the working of Large Foundational Vision-Language Models, and design reliable and trustworthy models based on this knowledge.
Prior to this, I spent two beautiful years at the Yardi School of Artificial intelligence, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Delhi, India with Prof. Chetan Arora and Prof. Parag Singla working on active learning for computer vision.
Before this, I received my Bachelor’s and Master’s degree from the Department of Mathematics & Statistics, Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Kolkata, India.
