About Me

I'm an ELLIS PhD student at The Max Planck Institute for Informatics at Saarland University and The University of Edinburgh, advised by Prof. Vera Demberg and Prof. Timothy Hospedales. Before this, I worked at Micron Technology as a Data Scientist after completing my MSc. in Data Science from Chennai Mathematical Institute. I had the opportunity to collaborate with eminent researchers like Prof. Sriparna Saha, Prof. Ponnurangam Kumaraguru and Prof. Adam Jatowt on multimodal learning, model augmentation and temporal understanding of LLMs (details).

My research focuses on uncovering implicit intentions expressed through the integration of language, audio, and visual modalities, and on advancing pragmatic reasoning to enhance the interpretability of large multimodal models. I'm also interested in the fusion mechanisms of VLMs, multi-modal evaluation and jailbreaking.
