About Dheeraj Kalmekolan
Designing efficient, low-cost technologies for common people-Technology has grown manifold in the past few years. Most modern-day firms have technology at the core of their development. However, I felt that reach of technology has not reached many areas where it can work miracles. Building low-cost technologies were the main reason I ended up taking a Computer Science Undergraduate from I.I.T Bombay. With my Analytical skills, analysing diverse problems from an Olympiad Mathematical problem to the post-game analysis of Manchester United, I always felt that I can achieve my goals. I graduated from Columbia learning the necessary techniques for my goals. I\'ve worked a lot on Deep Learning in Vision, Parsing, Machine Translation and Language Modelling. I\'m looking for Challenging problems in Machine Learning and Software Development. Fun facts about me:1. I play Electric Guitar ( Metal and rock mostly)2. I do a very good Liverpool accent3. I write a lot of limericks (mostly naive)
