Anshul Shah
I am a Research Scientist at Apple. I graduated with a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Johns Hopkins University in Feb'24 where I was advised by Prof. Rama Chellappa and was working on problems in Computer Vision and Machine Learning. I also obtained an MS in Computer Science from University of Maryland, College Park.
Previously I obtained a B.Tech(Honors) and M.Tech in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Madras. At IIT-M I was working under the guidance of Prof. A.N Rajagopalan in the area of Image Deblurring and Video Generation.
