Mohit Agrawal  

A hearty Welcome! I am Mohit Agrawal, a Senior Lead Engineer at Qualcomm. Prior to this, I spent a wonderful time as a Senior Software Engineer at Teradata R&D Labs, working in the area of distributed machine learning. I also spent two short stints at IBM ISDL and Blaize. I also worked as a research assistant at IIIT Delhi, where I was advised by Prof. Rajiv Ratn Shah and Prof. Rajesh Kumar.

I received my Master's and Bachelor's in Computer Science and Engineering from National Institute of Technology Tiruchirappalli and Government College of Engineering, Bhawanipatna in 2016 and 2013, respectively. During my master's I was advised by Prof. R. Leela Velusamy for my thesis titled "Spam Detection in Social Networking Sites Using Unsupervised Learning and Dimensionality Reduction".

Apart from my academic interests, I like to teach, write stuff, and travel. If you are interested in my research or have any use cases that you want to share, feel free to contact me!
