Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShivvrat Arya is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at NJIT specializing in neuro-symbolic and trustworthy AI, with nine years of experience spanning probabilistic reasoning, explainable systems, and neural combinatorial optimization. He develops interpretable models that fuse structured domain knowledge with data-driven learning, advancing neural solvers and graph-based inference for vision and language tasks. His research has produced novel neural inference techniques and optimization-driven architectures that have driven improvements in video understanding, activity recognition, and multimodal reasoning, earning best-paper and spotlight recognitions. Trained with an MS and PhD from UT Dallas and a B.Tech from IIIT Vadodara, he blends rigorous academic foundations with hands-on research mentorship and teaching. Unusually for an academic, he combines deep probabilistic modeling with practical neural approaches to constrained optimization, targeting systems that are both powerful and transparent. Based in Newark, NJ, he is building reasoning-enhanced foundation models that aim to make AI both reliable and aligned with human judgment.
