About
Hii there! I'm Pranay, a 3rd-year UG student at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Bhopal, with a deep and growing interest in Computer Vision and Machine Learning. My current research involves using Vision Language Models for segmentation tasks and control in Autonomous Navigation at MuSiC Lab, IISER Bhopal. . I'm also working on Visual Place Recognition (VPR) and image geolocalization at IIT Roorkee under the guidance of Dr. Gaurav Kumar Nayak. Over the past year, I have worked on various projects, including building models from scratch like PaliGemma, ViT, and Transformers, fine-tuning LLMs like LLaMA 2 using LoRA and quantization, and deploying real-time ML models on Raspberry Pi using thermal imagery. I've always been fascinated by the idea of machines that can learn, see, and create something that we imagine in our minds. I'm passionate about using AI to solve real-world problems creatively, and I'm actively seeking research/project opportunities. Beyond Academics, I am also a part of the EECS CLUB at IISER Bhopal, where I have worked on various projects and events. I have a keen interest in robotics and electronics, and I enjoy creating fun and creative content.
