I am a post-doctoral research scientist in the CAVE lab at the Columbia University, working with Prof. Shree Nayar. I completed my PhD at the Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University in 2010, where my advisor was Prof. Srinivasa Narasimhan.
My research has two main themes: (1) Developing computational models of the interaction of light with real world materials and scenes, where light often misbehaves. (2) Building high capability sensors by using novel combinations of optics and computations. The goal is to build computer vision systems that see more and better, even in challenging real world scenarios.
