Senior🎓
Top SchoolAvirup Saha is a research scientist at IBM Research in Kolkata with eight years of experience in AI research and applied machine learning, grounded in a PhD pursuit at IIT Kharagpur and a strong CSE background from Jadavpur University. His work spans probabilistic models and graph-based semi-supervised learning, with hands-on internships that applied Dirichlet Hawkes processes for entity re-resolution and graph methods at Flipkart. He has moved fluidly between academia and industry—serving as a project officer and research fellow at IIT Kharagpur before joining IBM—bringing both experimental rigor and production-minded research. Notably, his early work on content-adaptive texture compression shows a practical knack for systems-level optimization alongside theoretical modeling.
