Short Bio

I am a Researcher at the Augmented Vision department of German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI GmbH), working under the supervision of Dr. Alain Pagani and Prof. Didier Stricker. My research focuses on core challenges in computer vision, with a special emphasis on inferring 3D information from 2D data—particularly in the areas of generalizable 3D reconstruction, optical flow estimation, and novel view synthesis. In parallel, I contribute to the development of AR/VR applications, with a focus on interactive and immersive data visualization. My work aims to bridge foundational vision research with user-centered extended reality systems, enabling practical applications in augmented environments.

I earned my master’s degree in Computational Sciences in Engineering (CSE) from TU Braunschweig, Germany. For my master’s thesis, I worked under the supervision of Prof. Nils Thuerey at TU Munich (TUM) on developing efficient learning-based methods for particle simulations to generate physically accurate fluid animations for computer graphics.

During my studies, I gained practical experience through research internships at Volkswagen AG and the German Aerospace Center (DLR), where I worked on advanced perception algorithms for autonomous driving and user-focused driver-assistance systems.

My academic journey began with a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI), India.
