Harshita Chopra
Hi! I'm a first year PhD student in Computer Science & Engineering at University of Washington, Seattle. I'm advised by Prof. Chirag Shah. My research interests span the area of AI-assisted decision making and ML for personalization.
Previously, I worked as a Research Associate at Adobe Research. I primarily collaborated with Dr. Atanu R Sinha, Dr. Sunav Choudhary and other amazing researchers from the Data-driven Systems and Document Intelligence groups. In this pre-doctoral role, I focused on challenges arising from user heterogeneity, partially observed behaviors and budget-constrained maximization of reach on digital platforms. My projects involve working with deep learning, actor-critic algorithms (RL), constrained optimization and natural langugage processing (NLP). Recently, I also worked on LLM training & inference for digital marketing tasks.
I graduated with a BTech in Information Technology from Indraprastha University, Delhi in 2022. During my undergraduate study, I contributed to research at the intersection of ML and Healthcare at IIIT Delhi, under the supervision of Prof. Tavpritesh Sethi. I also spent a year working on a research project under the supervision of Prof. Nia Nixon on AI for education at UC Irvine .
