About

(Algo Cookie dipped in AI Milk) My name is Vedant Saraswat and I'm a driven MS computer science graduate student at the University of California, Irvine. I'm passionate about leveraging my expertise in efficient machine learning, Natural language processing, and Full stack software engineering to create innovative solutions to real-world problems. I hold a Bachelor's degree from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, where I graduated among the top of my class. During my undergrad, I honed my programming skills through advanced computer science coursework and gained hands-on experience through industrial and research internships at leading technology companies like Amazon and IBM. For the past two years, I worked as a software engineer at MX Player, where I helped build streamlined video streaming experiences for over 175 million monthly active users. My responsibilities included architecting robust backend systems, implementing machine learning algorithms, and optimizing performance. I'm currently pursuing exciting research as a Data and Technology Fellow at UC Irvine, where I'm developing AI applications like clinical trial matching platforms and sustainability analytics dashboards.I'm also part of Dr Dan Roth's Cognitive Computation Group at Upenn working under Dr Vivek Gupta solving Natural Language Inference on Tabular data. I'm also served as a Graduate Teaching Assistant with UCI for five terms teaching about concepts on Big Data, Cloud Applications, Kubernetes, Web System Architectures, Information Retrieval etc. Outside of academics, I actively compete in programming contests and have a passion for recreational mathematics, geography. I'm excited to take on new challenges that leverage my expertise across the domains of artificial intelligence, data mining, cloud computing, and full-stack development.
