Ameet Deshpande
NLP Ph.D. Candidate at Princeton University
Researcher at Allen Institute for AI (AI2)
I am a computer scientist pursuing my Ph.D. at Princeton University, advised by Dr. Karthik Narasimhan. My research interests are broadly in the field of natural language processing (NLP), with special emphasis on sub-topics of AI safety, data-efficient algorithms, efficient NLP architectures, and multilingual NLP.
I am currently visiting Allen Institute for AI (AI2) and working with Dr. Ashwin Kalyan as part of the Aristo team.
I am deeply passionate about teaching and view disseminating knowledge to be as important as the research I do.
Previously, I received my B.Tech from IIT Madras, where I worked on reinforcement learning with Prof. Balaraman Ravindran and on NLP with Prof. Mitesh M. Khapra and Prof. Sutanu Chakraborti.
In my free time, I enjoy playing football (soccer), tennis, and the piano.
