About

My research interests span Information Retrieval and Natural Language Processing (NLP), with a particular focus on developing advanced language understanding techniques to enhance search and retrieval systems. I enjoy working at the intersection of theory and real-world applications, building intelligent systems and translating research into practical AI solutions.

I graduated from IISER Kolkata with a BS-MS, majoring in Physics and minor in Computational and Data Sciences. My master's thesis, under Prof. Dwaipayan Roy, focused on Relevance Feedback and Query Expansion in Information Retrieval.
