About Me
- I am a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science at Northwestern University.
- I am broadly interested in theoretical computer science, primary focus being Algorithms and Machine Learning Theory. I have worked on some approximation algorithm problems related to corelation clustering and theoretical guarantees related to consistency in probabilistic methods. I find problems in combinatorial optimization and Discrepancy theory very interesting too!
- I completed my Masters of Mathematics(MMath) from Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata, India.
- I completed my undergraduate studies(Bsc dual hons) in Mathematics and Computer Science from Chennai Mathematical Institute, India.
- I completed my school education from South Point High School, Kolkata, India.
