Aditya Arora

I am a MSc student at York University, co-supervised by Prof. Kosta Derpanis and Prof. Michael S Brown. Previously, I was a Research Engineer at Inception Institute of Artificial Intelligence working with Dr. Fahad Shahbaz Khan and Dr. Syed Waqas Zamir. At IIAI, I work at the intersection of Computer Vision and Deep Learning both from a research perspective and also using my research into real-world projects. I completed my undergraduate studies in Computer Science Engineering from DIT University. I have also been a Research Intern at Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee where I worked with Dr. Balasubramanian Raman on Acoustic Scene Classification. My research interests include low-level vision tasks such as Image Denoising, Image Enhancement and Super Resolution.
