by increasing the speed–up by 15%, exploiting
different data access patterns and minimizing
prefetch induced interference. Rated most in-
novative by AMD.
• Engagement labeling between customer and
CRM agent on Twitter Data:
Designed a tool to track the engagement and ef-
fectiveness of CRM agents in addressing the is-

Deployed a platform worth $2 million to demonstrate due diligence which proac-
tively identifies individuals and entities that pose a risk in the supply chain by Text
Analytics & Active Learning. A end to end design with Angular js at front end,
Django as backend with Postgresql, Redis as cache with Celery workers.

June 2014 – Sept 2014 Bangalore, IN
• Methods and systems to train classification models to classify conversations:
Proposed a technique to adapt machine learning based microblog categorization
algorithm once trained on a domain to apply to a new domain with minimal or
no labelled data from the later. Several adaptation to CRF was made to make it
adaptable to short text format.
