I am a PhD student at Music Technology Group (MTG) of University of Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain. I am working as a part of CompMusic project with Prof. Xavier Serra. My research interests are based around music information technologies, which includes information retrieval, signal processing and machine learning applied to musical signals. Currently I am focusing on exploring culture specific computational models, specifically, melodic motivic analysis of Indian art music.

I am born and brought-up in Vidisha (1985, M.P. India). I obtained my undergraduate degree of Electrical Engineering (B-Tech, EE) from Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur in 2008. Post-graduation I have worked with ITTIAM systems, Anveshan Telecom, DAPLab - IIT Bombay, Sensibol Audio Technologies and Aynur Labs. In 2011 I joined MTG, where I received MSc in Sound and Music Computing and currently pursuing my PhD.
