Ashwin Kalyan

I am a second year Ph.D student at Georgia Tech advised by Dhruv Batra. I am interested in machine learning and its diverse applications.

I spent a wonderful summer (2017) at Microsoft Research India as an intern with Prateek Jain working at the intersection of Program Synthesis and Deep Learning.

I am a violinist learning Karnatic Classical music from Vid. A Kanyakumari . Sounds from concerts are on my sound cloud channel.
