SHORT BIO

 I was born in Kerala, India. I am interested in practical algorithms for digital content creation tasks with the main focus on Sketch-based interfaces. I also work on fundamental problems in digital geometry processing, including reconstruction and meshing. Currently I am working as a tenured Assistant Professor (Maitre de Conferences in French) at LTCI-Telecom Paris, Institut Polytechnique de Paris since Sep 2021. Previously, I worked as:
  • Research Associate - Computer Graphics and Visualization Group, TU Delft (2020-2021 Advisor: Elmar Eisemann)
  • Assistant Professor - Department of Computer Science, IIT Guwahati (2019-2020)
  • Postdoctoral Researcher - GeoVic (formerly STREAM) team - LIX, École Polytechnique (2019 Advisor: Marie-Paule Cani)
  • Predoctoral Fellow - Advanced Geometric Computing Lab, IIT Madras (2018-2019 Advisor: Ramanathan Muthuganapathy)
  • Doctoral Researcher - Advanced Geometric Computing Lab, IIT Madras (2014-2018 Advisor: Ramanathan Muthuganapathy)
During my Ph.D, I also visited École Polytechnique (2018, Advisor: Marie-Paule Cani) and University of Tokyo (2016, Advisor Takeo Igarashi).
