About Abhishek Kumar

A curious Machine Learning Engineer with experience building AI powered products. Currently, working on various state of art Language Models. My previous experience include projects in Computer Vision & Deep Learning Model Deployment for Autonomous Driving.*As a Research Assistant at Arizona State University (20••••18), I gained immense knowledge in ML by contributing to two research projects: 1. Automatic Speech Recognition using \"Binary\" LSTM model (extended to k-bit) 2. Predicting Grid Topology using time-series power data.*My topic of interest include Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, Distributed Systems and AI for Good. I like to participate in Hackathons. My first experience at Microsoft was Microsoft Hackathon 2020, with the topic,\"QuitBot: Fred Hutch Personalized Therapy Chatbot for Quitting Smoking\" where I developed a transformer based Deep Neural Network for chatbot\'s intelligence. Our project was declared winner under \"Mental Hack\" section.*Specialties-Programming: Python, C#, C/C++, MATLAB, SQL, HTML, XML, Tableau*Tools, Frameworks & Libraries: Pytorch, TensorFlow, KALDI, Keras, Scikit-learn, Django, Flask, MongoDB, Git, Android, Visual Studio, Eclipse, Quickbuild.*Deep Learning Techniques: LLMs, BERT, TNLR, GPT-2, LSTM, RNN, CNN, GAN, Auto-encoder, Regressions, Generative & Discriminating models, Word2Vec.*Publication: Big Data and Deep Learning Platform for Terabyte-Scale Renewable Datasets in PSCC 18 (Power Systems Computation Conference).*Github: https://github.com/luas13
