Brief Bio

I received my PhD degree in Engineering Sciences at University of California San Diego, working with advisors Sonia Martinez and Nikolay Atanasov. Prior to this, I received my Master's degree from Purdue University ( 1, 2 ), and Bachelor's degree from Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati. Some of my work with undergraduate students and interns at MURO lab is mentioned here.

Research

My research has focused on generating real-time autonomous decision-making capabilities in networked systems. In particular, my work aims to address several aspects of provably correct distributed estimation and optimization in networked systems, such as accuracy, efficiency, approximations and privacy.
