Research Opportunities

I am looking for research students to work with me. The student can choose to do research on one of the following three paths.

Purely Theoretical:
- Research topics: Hardness of Approximation and PCPs, Property Testing, Streaming Algorithms (or Big Data algorithms in general), Computational Learning Theory.
- Qualifications: The student is expected to have done very well in algorithms, datastructures, basic math courses.

Theory + Applied:
- Research Topics: Interpretable/Explanable AI, Graph/Information theoretic approaches to analysing Neural Networks or Big Data in general.
- Qualifications: Students applying are expected to have good programming experience in numpy, deep learning frameworks etc in addition to the requirements for purely theoretical above

Purely Applied:
- Research Topics: Building Scene Understanding Pipeline for Autonomous Navigation on Rasberri Pi or Android devices, Performance Bechmarks for Deep Learning on Rasberri Pi/Android/IoT processors.
- Qualifications: Students should have experience with Rasberry Pi, Android programming as well as Deep Learning Frame works.

Internships

I am looking for long term interns in the following 3 groupings:

2-4 months: Since the time period is short, the student is expected to be well qualified in the particular topic. Also this has typically the largest pool of applicants.
5-8 months:
9-12 months:

Students can choose to have:

No Support/No Campus Accomodation: The student is expected to find his/her own accomodation and no financial support will be provided. The student is expected to be in the office at IIITH, during 10-5, for 6 days a week. Applicants for <= 4 months are only considered in this category. Exceptions could be made for extremely good candidates.
No Support but with Campus Accomodation: Campus accomodation in shared hostel rooms will be arranged. However students will need to pay for the expenses (approx 6K per month). I will try to arrange this for students coming for 5-9 months. If you do not require it, then you have higher chance for the internship.
Support with Campus Accomodation: I will support the living expenses with campus accomodation for students staying >=10 months.
