Aniruddha Mahapatra Aniruddha Mahapatra Research Scientist / Engineer
I am a Research Scientist/Engineer at Adobe Research . I completed my Masters in Computer Vision (MSCV) from Carnegie Mellon University , where I was advised by Prof. Jun-Yan Zhu . My research interest include image and video synthesis and editing using generative models. Lately, I have been mostly interested in representation learning for generation.Research Internships at Adobe
