Abhishek is a 5th year Ph.D. student at MIT Media Lab. He is interested in the self-organization and decentralization of machine learning algorithms. The central question guiding his research is -- how can we (algorithmically) engineer the principles of self-organization to build anti-fragile systems. He has co-authored multiple papers, patents and built systems in machine learning, data privacy, and distributed computing. Before joining MIT, Abhishek worked with Cisco for 2 years where he did research in AutoML and Machine Learning for systems.
