Hi! I’m Prakhar. I’m a first year PhD student under Prof Golnoosh Farnadi at McGill and Mila. I recently graduated from NUS, with a Masters of Computing (AI specialization) under Prof. Reza Shokri. Prior to that, I did my BTech in Computer Science and Engineering from IIT Delhi and worked at Advanced Digital Sciences Center, Singapore as a Research Engineer for two years. My research interests involve studying the challenges that arise in machine learning when moving from the sandbox to the real world, including fairness, privacy, adversarial robustness, compression, etc., by uncovering the learning dynamics of neural models. My long term goal is a career in research and academia in the field of AI.
