Santosh Kumar Divvala (original) (raw)

I have graduated from CMU and I'm currently a Postdoctoral Research Associate at University of Washington in Seattle. Check out my new homepage at UW!

I am a ((n+1)-2007)th year doctoral student at the Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University. My interests are in Computer Vision, specifically the Scene/Image Understanding problem. My approach to this problem takes a Machine Learning perspective so as to leverage today's Internet-scale image & video databases. The results of my research apply to Robotics (helping robots better 'interpret' the world around them) & to Computational Photography (enhancing the way we humans relish our photo collections).

At the RI, I work with Martial Hebert and Alyosha Efros.

In Summer'11, I interned in the Computer Vision group at Google, Mountain View. In Summer'10, I worked as a research intern in the Interactive Visual Media group at Microsoft Research, Redmond. In Fall'09, I was a visiting student researcher at ENS/INRIA Paris as part of the WILLOW Research team. In Summer'06, I interned with the Imaging Technologies Group at GE Research, Bangalore.

Before joining the RI, I did my Undergrad and Masters (Dual Degree) at the Center for Visual Information Technology, IIIT Hyderabad, India. At IIIT-H, I had worked with C V Jawahar and P J Narayanan.
