Medhini Narasimhan

Hi! I'm a second-year Ph.D. student at UC Berkeley, where I'm advised by Prof. Trevor Darrell and Prof. Alyosha Efros. My research focus is on self-supervised and cross-modal representation learning and video understanding.

I completed my Master's in Computer Science at the UIUC where I was advised by Prof. Alexander Schwing and Prof. Svetlana Lazebnik. In 2017, I obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Information Technology from NITK, India.

I've had the pleasure of interning at:

Facebook AI Research, Summer 2019 with Prof. Devi Parikh, Prof. Dhruv Batra and Amanpreet Singh.
Zillow, Summer 2018 with Dr. Ivaylo Boyadhzhiev and Dr. Qi Shan

I am a Snap Research Scholar (2019) and a Siebel Scholar (2018)!
