Summary
Anup Kalia is a Senior AI Researcher with 11 years of experience building scalable NLP, information retrieval, and knowledge-graph driven systems for real-time social media and enterprise use. He has led teams at Dataminr and Millennium to deploy pipelines that process hundreds of millions of messages daily, shipping models from fine-tuned BERT/XLM-R to production LLMs like LLaMA and Mistral. His work blends research and productization—reinventing entity tagging, linking, and alignment at massive scale and applying agents for knowledge completion and verification. At IBM he translated KG and NLP ideas into products such as Mono2Micro and Tackle Container Advisor, demonstrating a knack for turning research into practical tooling. An active peer reviewer and area chair for top venues (ACL, EMNLP, WWW, CIKM), he pairs deep academic roots (PhD NC State) with operational expertise in low-cost model deployment. Colleagues note his unusual strength in optimizing both algorithmic design and cost-constrained production runtimes for mission-critical alerting systems.
