Research

My research covers a broad range of topics in hardware and software design, optimization and verification. The following are my main focus, however please refer to my Google Scholar profile for a more complete list of my research topics.

  • Rumor Detection: VRoC: Variational Autoencoder-aided Multi-task Rumor Classifier Based on Text
  • Intelligent Task Scheduling for Cloud and Data Centers: H2O-Cloud: A Resource and Quality of Service-Aware Task Scheduling Framework for Warehouse-Scale Data Centers - A Hierarchical Hybrid DRL (Deep Reinforcement Learning) based Approach
  • An Intelligent Design, Optimization and Verification Framework in Superconducting Technologies. The optimization includes clock gating. The verificaiton flow includes deep reinforcement learning to identify the faulty states and neural networks to identify the source of design errors. It also includes a simple clock network verification
