Shubham Dokania

Hi! I’m an upcoming PhD candidate at the RTG 2853 Neuroexplicit Models of Language, Vision, and Action at Saarland University, starting from September 2024. I will be co-supervised by Prof. Philipp Slusallek and Prof. Eddy Ilg.

Previously, I was working as a Senior Researcher at Mercedes-Benz Research & Development India working on multi-modal research for vision, language and additional modalities. I have completed my Masters (MS Research, Computer Science) at IIIT Hyderabad, co-supervised by Prof. C. V. Jawahar at CVIT, Prof. Manmohan Chandraker from UCSD . Before that, I was working as a Research Engineer at Mercedes-Benz Research & Development India, on the MBUX Interior Assistant using Computer Vision and Deep Learning.

I finished my undergraduate from Delhi Technological University (Formerly DCE) in 2017, with a degree in Mathematics and Computing. I have been lucky to receive mentorship by some amazing people including Prof. C.V. Jawahar, Prof. Manmohan Chandraker, Dr. Anbumani Subramanian, and Dr. Ganesh Bagler.

I love to explore different problems, especially in computer vision, and experiment with different domains frequently. Sometimes, it ends up in something useful, other times it’s a good learning experience. I try to share my random thoughts on my blog.
