About

Aakash Rajpal is a highly motivated ML-DevOps and Computer Vision Researcher with over 2 years of experience in dealing with various Machine Learning techniques. He is currently a Master Thesis Student at k|lens gmbh, where he is working on developing an Attention Based Consistent Monocular Depth Estimation Network under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Philipp Slusallek and Dr. Sunil Jaiswal. Aakash has a formidable base in dealing with big data and developing production level deep learning models to tackle real-world vision problems. As a previous software engineer, Aakash is well-versed in working in an agile team and software development concepts, including continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD). He has undertaken courses such as Information Extraction, Neural Networks, Probabilistic Machine learning, Database Systems, Machine Learning Cybersecurity, which have helped him establish a solid foundation in Machine Learning and also provided a perfect environment for him to deepen his understanding of various AI techniques. Aakash has also worked as a Computer Vision Research Engineer Intern at k|lens gmbh, where he helped to enhance the existing NVIDIA Flownet 2.0 optical flow-based disparity approach to take in a multi-view K|Lens image and output its corresponding depth values from disparity. He has also worked as a Teaching Assistant at Universität des Saarlandes under Prof. Dr. Vera Demberg in Computer Science and Computational Linguistics. Aakash's education includes a Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence from Universität des Saarlandes and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Manipal Institute of Technology. He also holds a High School Diploma in Engineering Science from the National Institute of Open Schooling and a Cambridge IGCSE High School in General Studies from the International School of Lusaka, Zambia. Aakash's tech stack includes ML, Computer Vision, Research Scientist, DevOps, Supervised Learning, Software Engineer, AI, Deep Learning, CI/CD, Big Data, Neural Networks, and Integration. He is an excellent team player, detail-oriented, and takes initiative.
