If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?
- Albert Einstein
Research:
I am keenly interested in working on the challenging topics in Trustworthy AI, especially security and privacy in machine learning.
I have also gotten some research experience exploring some topics in Digital Image Forensics, Applied Cryptography, Computer Vision & Deep learning.
