Research Interests
My research is in Algorithms and Uncertainty where the goal is to design optimal algorithms for uncertain inputs by studying different forms of uncertainty together. My uncertainty models are inspired from areas such as Online Algorithms, Algorithmic Game Theory, Stochastic Optimization, Multi-Armed Bandits and Online Learning.
Here is my CV, DBLP, and Google Scholar. Also, a 3 min and a 1 hour video overview of my research.
Biography
I am an Assistant Professor in the School of Computer Science at Georgia Tech. Before coming to Atlanta, I was a Research Instructor (postdoc) at Princeton University and Institute for Advanced Study from 2018 to 2021. Earlier, I finished my PhD in Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University where I was advised by Anupam Gupta and Manuel Blum.
