Summary
Gobinda Saha is an AI research scientist with a PhD from Purdue and eight years of experience bridging deep learning algorithms and in-memory computing hardware. He designs neuro-inspired continual and lifelong learning methods—authoring innovations like Gradient Projection Memory, Scaled Gradient Projection, SPACE, and explainable episodic replay—that achieve near-zero forgetting and state-of-the-art gains on continual vision and RL benchmarks. Skilled in Python and PyTorch, he also brings practical hardware-algorithm co-design experience for electronic and photonic in-memory computing, including IMC primitives and HSPICE-anchored evaluation under nonidealities. Now at Meta in Menlo Park, he combines theoretical optimization (natural/second-order, bi-level methods) with hardware-aware training, model compression, and privacy-preserving decentralized learning. A less obvious strength is his consistent focus on explainability and resource-aware strategies that yield both accuracy and energy efficiency improvements in deployed inference scenarios.
