About me

Hi! I'm Saichethan, and I am excited to share my experience as a recent graduate with a master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Dallas, Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science & Engineering from the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Bhagalpur.

My research interests focus on natural language processing, specifically in the areas of summarization, information extraction, and NLP applications. I am also interested in exploring Multimodal Learning for text understanding. My goal is to use machine learning to break language barriers and facilitate communication & accessibility across languages and cultures

During my undergraduate study, as a visiting student researcher at IIT Patna, I have worked with Dr. Sriparna Saha and Dr. Pushpak Bhattacharya in the AI-NLP-ML lab, where I explored different classification based problems which includes developing supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms for automatic summarization of scholarly articles, Multimodal Named Entity Recognition on twitter data, and Dialogue Systems.

I am passionate about software development and excited to embark on a career in this field. If you have any questions or would like to discuss potential collaborations please feel free to contact me.
