  • About Me

    I am working as a Senior AI Scientist at Silo AI (Finland) since Feb 2022. Before this, I was working as a post-doctoral researcher with Prof. Petr Motlicek at Idiap Research Institute doing research in NLP which includes Text Summarization, Topic Detection, Fake News Detection, Dialect Detection, and Deep Learning. Before Idiap, I was doing my research on Neural Machine Translation, NLP, Deep Learning under the supervision of Prof. Ondřej Bojar at the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics, Charles University in Prague. I have expertise in machine learning, AI, computational neuroscience, product development, system/solution architect.

     

    Feel free to contact me for any possible research collaboration in the research areas of mutual interest.

     

    Background:

    I am from the beautiful town Umerkote, in the district of Nabarangpur, state Odisha, an eastern Indian state. I spent most of my life in these cities: Bhubaneswar, the capital of state Odisha and Bangalore, the IT capital of India.

     

    Family:

    My family includes my father Mr. Bijay Kumar Parida (retired central govt service, spent most of the time in social service for the disabled persons), my mother late Mrs. Charulata Parida (was a loving and kind mother and the reason I'm where I am today. recently lost her, worst pain in my life), my dear wife Mrs. Manaswini Mohapatra and my sweet and cute daughter Miss. Aishani Parida (Renee). I have two brothers Mr. Satyabrata Parida, Mr. Dharmaraj Parida, and sister Mrs. Reena Parida. Also, I have many lovely and sweet cousin brothers/sisters, uncles, and aunties. Although we are based far from each other and placed in different countries, still in touch (thanks to technology, FB, WhatsApp :-)

     

    Interest:

    I like to travel, explore new places (historical places fascinates me.), enjoy listening to music, watching movies, try cooking, writing. I always wanted to do something for preserving nature and volunteer for animal welfare.
