Hello,
I'm Sejal
I'm a Ph.D student in the Department of Computer Science at University of Toronto, jointly advised by Dr. Alex Mariakakis and Dr. Eyal de Lara. My research focuses on building intelligent systems that can sense, process, and infer human actions, physiology, and context. I primarily employ signal processing and machine learning techniques to realize such systems that have applications in healthcare, gesture/activity recognition and novel interactions.
​
Before commencing my Ph.D, I graduated with a Bachelors in Technology from IIIT Delhi, with a major in Computer Science Engineering. As an undergraduate, I worked on multiple research projects under the guidance of Dr. Aman Parnami, Dr. Jainendra Shukla, and Dr. Mayank Goel, among others.
​
I'm seeking research internship opportunities for Fall 2025. Please reach out if you think I’d be a good fit!
