Saksham Singh Kushwaha | The University of Texas at Dallas

About Me

I am a first-year CS Ph.D. at the University of Texas at Dallas under Prof. Yapeng Tian. Previously, I did my MS in CS at NYU Courant where I was fortunate to work with Prof. Juan Pablo Bello, Prof. Magdalena Fuentes, Dr. Iran Roman at Music and Audio Research Lab. My research interests lie in multimodal deep learning and machine listening.

Prior to joining NYU, I worked as a machine learning engineer II at Zomato and as a senior data scientist at Sharechat. While in industry I applied ML to solve problems in user recommendation and personalization. I received my B.Tech degree in Mathematics and Computing from IIT Delhi.

In my spare time, I like to play guitar and tennis.
