About me
I am an Applied Scientist at Amazon where I use LLMs for different usecases. I completed my Masters majoring in Computer Science (Thesis Track) from Arizona State University. My thesis was on “Sample efficiency of Instruction Tuned Models” supervised by Prof. Chitta Baral. I recently interned at Krutrim where I created a multi-lingual 7B foundation model focused on Indic languages. I was responsible for the curation of high quality pre-training data, instruction tuning and evaluation of the model and obtained results comparable with Llama 2 (Media Coverage).
Research
My research interests include Large Language Models, Enhancing Pretraining Corpora, Instruction Tuning, and Direct Preference Optimization. I collaborate with Dr. Swaroop Mishra on topics such as Instruction tuning, Synthetic dataset creation and mathematical reasoning. My strength lies in generating new ideas and I am fortunate to collaborate with a diverse set of awesome researchers through my ideas.
