The award comes with a federal grant

They focused on finding the right measurements from the data.Shrivastava earned an integrated MS and BS in mathematics and computing from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur in 2008 and a PhD in computer science from Cornell University in 2015, the same year he joined the Rice faculty."They were not designed with computational complexity in Labeling Machine Factory mind. With big data, were realising that standard techniques fail to address new constraints of computations, energy, memory and other resources," he said.Houston: An Indian-American computer scientist has won National Science Foundations prestigious CAREER award for his research on redesigning current machine-learning processes.."My research leverages the existing algorithmic advances for pushing machine learning to the extreme scale," said Shrivastava, an assistant professor of computer science at Rice university.

The award comes with a federal grant for research and education activities for five consecutive years.Shrivastava hopes to come up with clever algorithmic strategies to enable faster, more scalable computations required by big data and machine-learning technologies.CAREER awards are the National Science Foundations most prestigious awards exemplifying the role of teacher-scholars through research, education and the integration of education and research. Most of the measurements are now quite expensive to compute."I design hashing and sketching algorithms, a class of randomised algorithms that can process humongous data sets in seconds.Anshumali Shrivastava was one of the recipients of the CAREER awards given to about 400 scholars each year across all disciplines to support the research and educational development of young scholars likely to become leaders in their fields. Most of the machine-learning algorithms still in use were developed from the 1960s through the 1980s," he said."Can we redesign current machine-learning processes that rely only on operations that are efficient and do not affect the outputs significantly? That is the central question in my research," he said.

The sender has also given exact details

"I will roast and eat the meat of your family members bodies," the email by the sender read.The polygraphic machine is a US manufactured one and Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) would try to get it repaired at the earliest.Verma is a witness in the case pertaining to killing of three Sikhs- Badal Singh, Thakur Singh and Gurcharan Singh - at Gurudwara Pulbangash in North Delhi on November 1, 1984, a day after the assassination of then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.In the said email received by Verma, the sender has used extremely foul and threatening language and has also threatened to harm his wife and mother.The case was heard by Karkardooma Court on October 30.Meanwhile, the IO has also informed the Court Commissioner, B S Joon, and cancelled the cardiologist for the scheduled dates.Verma had filed a writ complaint with Delhi Police on October 29, requesting them to enhance police protection following a death threat e-mail.New Delhi: Controversial arms dealer Abhishek Verma, a witness in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots case, on Friday claimed that a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Investigating Officer (IO) informed him that the polygraphic test scheduled on November 27 to 30 stands cancelled as the machine was found broken or faulty..Besides abuses, the email stated that Verma should drop the idea of "deshbhakti (patriotism)" and discontinue with the polygraph (lie detector) test at FSL, Delhi as a witness against Tytler, otherwise he will face death.On October 30, a Delhi Court appointed advocate Joon as the Court Commissioner to observe the lie detector test of Verma.

Verma said that the CBI officer had informed him this afternoon that the test will not be taking place as scheduled as the polygraphic machine was found to be broken or faulty."I am an important witness in 1984 Anti-Sikh riots case titled CBI versus Jagdish Tytler and have been granted three PSOs for round the clock security through the offices of DCP South, as per the orders of Honble High Court of Delhi and Honble ACMM Karkardooma Courts."This is a very serious matter and considering the gravity of the case in which I am a witness and the profile of the accused (Jagdish Tytler) and his underworld Filling and sealing line Manufacturers connections, it is requested that immediately a FIR be registered in this matter for further investigations and arrest of the accused Jagdish Tytler and his henchmen, who have been continuously threatening me since the day I turned a witness against Tytler," the letter further stated.The sender has also given exact details of Vermas residence and also his car registration numbers.He had filed a complaint in Mehrauli police station.New dates for the test would be fixed only after the machine is repaired. I received an extremely dirty and threatening email on our companys general email address," the complaint reads.
