Ciao

I’m Sanket, an aspiring researcher working on Multi Modal Deep learning with a focus on egocentric vision. I am final year PhD student at PAVIS, Italian Institute of Technology under the supervision of Dr. Alessio Del Bue. During my research, I primiarily focus on social interaction analysis for first person videos.

Previously, I have worked with Nokia Bell Labs , SmartVizx , Ernst and Young with their research teams. Besides, I had two startups during my college and filed two provisional patents. I have also been an active participant in technical communities and presented multiple technical talks and workshops at various level(s).

Passionate about Video understanding, object detection & multimodal learning.

PS : On the lookout for full-time roles as MLE / Applied Scientist.
