About

Speech and NLP technologies have advanced remarkably in recent years. However, they do not work equally well across users from diverse demographics, particularly in India where users span a wide variety of speech accents, dialects and languages. My research focuses on building speech and language technologies for such low-resource settings. A current key challenge of interest is how to enable effective transfer of knowledge from pretrained LLMs to new domains, and how to adapt large language models in parameter-efficient and cost-effective ways.
