About Dhwanit Agarwal

I work at the intersection of AI, Computer Vision, and Generative Content Creation — building systems that help machines see, understand, and generate. At Adobe Firefly, I focus on text-guided visual content generation and editing, combining research and engineering to push the boundaries of what\'s possible with GenAI.I hold 12+ AI patents and have published 7+ research papers across AI and Computational Sciences. Several of these patents are actively used by Adobe, contributing to multi-million dollar product revenues. My background blends mathematical rigor, scientific computing, and deep learning, shaped by a PhD in Computational Science from UT Austin and a Gold Medal in Mathematics from IIT Kanpur.As an active part of the research community, I regularly serve as a peer reviewer at venues including ECCV, WACV, KDD, ICPP, CHIL and journals like Journal of Computational Physics, Journal of Supercomputing, Physical Review Fluids, and more.I also enjoy speaking at tech talks, judging hackathons, and mentoring students and early-career professionals. Whether it’s navigating the tech industry, exploring academic paths, or thinking through career and financial decisions, I focus on personalized, real conversations — not just lists or canned advice.If you’re organizing a tech event, need a peer reviewer, or are a reporter looking for insight into GenAI trends, feel free to reach out: d••••••••@gmail.com. Core Focus Areas->Computer Vision & GenAI: Specializing in text-to-image generation and editing->Multimodal AI & LLMs: Research + engineering across visual-linguistic models->Numerical Analysis & Scientific Computing: Solving high-dimensional problems using ML and simulation->Machine Learning Tools: PyTorch, Scikit-learn, R, CUDA, OpenMP, MPI, C++, Python, Matlab->High-Performance Computing: Parallelized scientific simulations, GPU accelerationI’m always open to meaningful collaborations, technical discussions, and helping make AI more accessible through content and conversation.
