About Me
Hey! I'm Amit Saha, a third-year undergraduate student at Georgia Tech studying computer science and mathematics. If you'd like to reach out, find my contact information here.
Research: Broadly, I like working on theoretical problems with applications in fairness, safety, and privacy. More specifically, I like to exploit tools from
{information theory, high dimensional probability, algorithmic sampling}
as primitives to understand problems in
{statistical learning theory, deep learning, online learning},
usually with consideration for differential privacy ∈ {notions of algorithmic stability}. Learn more about my current projects and previous work here.
Updates: I'll be visiting Harvard and OpenDP this summer, advised by Salil Vadhan and collaborating with Walter McKelvie! Incredibly excited to continue working on privacy and statistical learning theory!
Currently, I've been fortunate to work with Pan Li, Andre Wibisono, and Abhishek Shetty. I've also had the pleasure of collaborating closely with Eli Chien, Yinan Huang, Rongzhe Wei, Jan Schuchardt, Kevin Jacob, Vishwak Srinivasan, and Siddharth Mitra. I'm deeply grateful for the guidance and support I've received from them.
Outside of my main research interests, I am deeply invested in {systems for machine learning, AI safety, autoformalization for mathematics via language models}, although I do not actively work on research in these fields. To this end, I am a contributor to the Marin project, an active member of the AISI community at Georgia Tech, and regularly make use of autoformalization tools for my own (mathematical) research.
Academics: I credit much of my research to ideas first learnt in different classes at Georgia Tech. If you're interested, check out my coursework here.
Industry Experience: I spent two wonderful summers working at Adobe on the Camera Raw team as a machine learning research intern under Michelle Qi and David Franzen.
Everything else: At last — nonacademically — I enjoy making pizza, reading, and listening to music all the time.
