Anish Mahishi is a Machine Learning Engineer with nine years of experience building production-ready ML systems and research-driven deep learning solutions, currently working on search at Bloomberg. Trained at IIT Delhi (Maths & Computing) and NYU (MS CS, 3.91 GPA), he blends strong theoretical foundations with practical engineering in Python, C++ and Java. His open-source contributions to PyTorch include designing and benchmarking data sparsifiers—enabling an 80% embedding compression on DLRM with minimal accuracy loss—showcasing expertise in model compression and scalable ML infrastructure. At Fractal Analytics he delivered customer cadence and recommendation systems that moved key business metrics in A/B tests and deployed real-time models on Kubernetes. He pairs hands-on kernel-level PyTorch work with end-to-end product deployments, and has a track record of translating research prototypes into measurable business impact.

Contributions summary:Anish primarily contributed to the implementation and testing of data sparsifiers within the PyTorch framework. Their work included the development of a "Nearly Diagonal Sparsifier" and the integration of data sparsification techniques for embeddings and embedding bags. The user also created and refined base classes and utility functions for more general data sparsification processes. Furthermore, they developed benchmarking tools to evaluate disk space savings and model quality metrics by introducing sparsity in the DLRM model.
