Collaborate
Three narrow lanes
I take on a small number of technical collaborations, selective advisory work, speaking, and research conversations.
Researchers and builders
If you're working on dependable AI — evaluation, verification, calibration, observability — or on small and local models, edge inference, or geospatial and physical intelligence, I want to compare notes. Especially if you have results that contradict mine.
Founders and technical leaders
Selective advisory and paid feasibility studies: AI systems architecture, operations automation, evaluation and reliability, and local inference under hardware, latency or connectivity constraints. Bring a concrete workflow and the conditions it has to meet; we can assess what is feasible and define a bounded engagement.
Universities and communities
Applied research, technical talks, and student programs. I direct the Acropolis Edge Lab in Indore, where student teams investigate offline voice and vision on laptops and Android phones. I welcome technical reviewers and practitioners with relevant problems. Commercial delivery is scoped and funded separately from the educational lab, with participating students hired and paid.
How to start
The best opening is a specific question or a system you're stuck on. Context is in the research questions.
