Hi, I am Varish!
I am a Senior Scientist at GE Research with nearly 14 years of grad. school + industry
research experience in developing novel algorithms and production-ready solutions in the areas
of information extraction and knowledge graph population from
semi-structured and unstructured text. I have authored/co-authored 19 peer-reviewed
publications, have 7 issued patents, and 900+
citations.
I have experience in working across the spectrum of technology readiness level research
programs, including deployed applications with $XX M+ of estimated impact and leadership
experience in managing and leading 3-4 member project teams.
I received my Ph.D. (2015) and M.S. (2010) in Computer Science from the University of Maryland,
Baltimore County (UMBC). At UMBC, I was a
member of the Ebiquity Research Lab,
where I worked under the guidance of my guru, Prof. Tim Finin. I also closely collaborated with Prof. Anupam Joshi. I completed my B.E.
in Computer Engineering from the University of Mumbai in 2007.
