I am passionate about learning new things and solving problems. I am currently a PhD candidate in Mathematics at Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John’s. I am working on Geometric Group Theory.


Learning projects

Data Science and ML

Machine learning

I am intereted in finding ways to utilise AI and machine learning for the use of the community. I work with classical ML algorithms as well as training Deep Neural Networks with Tensorflow. Check out this repository to see my notes in the progress.

Data Visulization

I enjoy making visualizations of the data into interactive plots. It helps users to interact with the data to explore and engage better. I am currently working on the project DataNL to collate data into graphs about NL. Check out the page for more details.

Web development

I started learning learning web development to be able to convert ideas to working prototypes. I learnt React and Ionic framework for front-end, and Gatsby and Jekyll for static websites. Currently I am exploring Dash to deploy ML and data science apps.


Entrepreneurship

Inverte

I am doing the Genesis Evolution program as a Co-founder of Inverte. Inverte is a pre-consumer food waste solution for fast food chains and restaurants.

Eden

Eden is the app based solution that won thrid prize in the the Mount Pearl Hackathon. Eden tackles food waste at consumer level. The further development of the project is on the hold for now.


Research

Publications

  • Subgroups, hyperbolicity and cohomological dimension for totally disconnected locally compact groups. (with Ilaria Castellanoano, Ged Corob Cook, E. Martinez Pedroza)(here) Journal of Topology and Analysis (Accepted)
  • Subgroups of word hyperbolic groups in rational dimension 2. (with E. Martinez Pedroza)(here) Groups, Geometry, and Dynamics. (to appear Jan 2021)

MS Thesis

I completed my Master thesis under the supervision of Krishnendu Gongopadhyay at Indian Institute of science Education and Research, Mohali. The title of the thesis was ‘z-Classes in finite p-group’.
