A bit of personal info
I received my PhD from the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) where I was fortunate to be advised by Mesrob I. Ohannessian. My PhD research presents a novel regularization technique that can improve the training of larger neural models using accurate smaller models. Besides research, I like to contribute to the open source community.
About this site
I created this website as a personal blog to connect complex ideas with foundational concepts, with an emphasis on clarity over depth.
The content on this site is broadly categorized into Articles and Posts. Articles will primarily cover theoretical topics, such as Mathematics, Probability, Algorithms and Machine Learning. Posts may be tied to specific software. Although Articles may be published less frequently, I aim to post more regularly in the Posts section.
Citations
I will not change the links to the Articles once they are posted. Feel free to cite them using the URL. I may however remove some Posts as their content gets outdated or no longer remains useful.
