Awards
Awarded ACM India-IARCS travel grant
ACM ∙ February 2025
ACM India-IARCS travel grants are intended for work directly related to computing science.
Won 1st Place in NVIDIA Competitions, ICETCI 2023
NVIDIA ∙ August 2023
In the domain of art restoration, develop an innovative computer vision model capable of effectively restoring deteriorated images of art pieces. The goal is to create an automated solution that can enhance and reconstruct degraded artworks, improving their visual quality while preserving their original characteristics. The model should handle a diverse range of deterioration types, including but not limited to noise, blur, scratches, fading, and other common forms of degradation.
Awarded one year iHub-Data PhD Fellowship
iHub-IIITH ∙ August 2023
Project Proposal: Fast & Efficient Normalizing Flows and Applications of Image Generative Models.
