About Me

I am a third year Prime Minister Research Fellow doing PhD student in Department of Electrical Engineering, at IIT Delhi. I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Deepak U Patil in the Laboratory for Control and Automation. I have completed my Masters at Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee in System and Controls. Before graduate school, I was a part of Integrated Control Guidance and Estimation Lab at Indian Institute of Science. I have also spent some time at KIIT teaching undergrads.

Research Interests

My major research interests lie in Network topology identitification, estimation theory, graph theory and networked multiagent system. I am particularly interested in recontructing underlying structural properties of complex networked systems.
I am also interested in working on development of estimation and control algorithm for blood glucose control.
