I am Anuj Diwan (अनुज दिवाण), a second year PhD student in the Computer Science Department at the University of Texas at Austin. I am fortunate to be co-advised by Prof. David Harwath and Prof. Eunsol Choi and I am part of the UT NLP group. I am also a Part-Time Student Researcher at FAIR (Meta AI) mentored by Dr. Abdelrahman Mohamed since Summer 2022.
My research interests are in Natural Language Processing, Speech Recognition, and Machine Learning. I’m currently working on speech-to-speech translation and parameter-efficient continual learning for speech tasks. I’ve worked on vision-language compositionality and multilingual+ code-switching speech recognition in the past.
I received my undergraduate B.Tech (with Honors) degree in Computer Science and a Minor degree in Statistics from IIT Bombay in 2021. I had a great time working with Prof. Preethi Jyothi and Prof. Sunita Sarawagi at IIT Bombay. I have interned at FAIR (Meta AI) in Summer 2022, Adobe Research India in Summer 2020 and ICTEAM, INMA, UCLouvain, Belgium in Summer 2019.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading, quizzing, solving wordgames, and watching the latest movies and TV shows.
