About Me

I'm Harshit Kumar (हर्षित कुमार).

I enjoy learning regardless of subject; sometimes I find myself studying microeconomics but my primary interest lies in machine learning and data science. I love finding patterns in data and solving problems. I've worked on various machine learning problems in computer vision and natural language processing. In my free time, I enjoy going through Q&A on the StackExchange network and playing sudoku.

Currently, I'm in senior year pursuing B.Tech (Bachelor of Technology) in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at Ambedkar Institute of Advanced Communication Technologies and Research (AIACTR), GGSIPU, Delhi.
