Debopam Sanyal

I am a PhD student in Computer Science [SCS] at Georgia Institute of Technology, where I specialize in machine learning and systems under the supervision of Prof. Alexey Tumanov. My current research interests are in efficient and private machine learning at the edge.

For Summer 2025, I will be joining the Advanced Technology Group at Dolby Labs as a PhD Research Intern. Previously, I was a Research Intern at Cisco Research for Summer 2024, where I worked on machine learning for distributed systems characterization.

I received my master's degree in Computer Science and my bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, both from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, where I was advised by Prof. Sibin Mohan.

In the past, I spent two summers as a research intern in the Computational Research Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. During my undergraduate studies, I spent two years as a part-time researcher at National Center for Supercomputing Applications.
