About

I am a Data Scientist at Microsoft, Hyderabad. My interest primarily lies in natural language generation/understanding and cross-lingual representations. Currently, I am working on multilingual Question Generation (aka DeepAsk) for Bing’s People Also Ask feature. Previously, I have been involved in various NLU projects like ranking & relevance, semantic similarity.

My research interests include but not limited to pre-training of language models and natural language generation.

Some key projects I have worked on in Microsoft:

• Generative models: multilingual natural language question generation for Bing supporting 100+ languages.
• QA: machine comprehension and passage ranking for Bing web search (in Tech domain).
• Click-based neural ranker to recommend questions to user in Bing’s People Also Ask.
• Multi-task learning to learn related NLP tasks simultaneously.
• semantic similarity of web queries.
• Query-question relevance for question recommendation
