Hey.

I'm Sarthak

an M.S Scholar from IIT Madras.

Welcome to my website.

Who I am

I'm Sarthak Parui, pursuing M.S. by Research under the guidance of Dr. Anurag Mittal at IIT Madras. Currently, I am in 5th semester of M.S program with CGPA 9.33/10.

My area of research is Computer Vision and I work on Shape-based Image Matching and Large Scale Image Retrieval.

Before joining IIT Madras, I was associated with Tata Consultancy Services. for 1 year 9 months. My main area of hands-on experience has been analysis and coding in Web and Mobile domains.

What I do

I'm passionate about the art of programming. And like many ohers, I don't think it as just a means to an end, or a job, but something inside of you that needs to be expressed.

Apart from research, I do take part in competative programming and various startup meets.

I'm always free for a constructive discussion for ideating, designing and developing as the fastest, scalable and most accurate & reliable products are those that aren’t there.

  • Large Scale Sketch-based Image Retrieval
    • Designed and developed an efficient system for touch-based devices which, given a sketch as query, retrieves the most relevant images from a dataset of million images in a scale, translation and rotation invariant way and it significantly outperforms current state-of-the-art techniques (Published in ECCV 2014). Brief Overview
  • WebGL and HTML5 based Game
  • Mobile app for Gaze Detection and Tracking
    • Application that detects an user's gaze and intelligently delivers targeted articles/products/ads. (Won Judges' Choice Award in Yahoo HackU! 2013 and Ebay/Paypal Hackathon 2014 held at IIT Madras)
  • Project on Public Key Method of Steganography
    • Designed a very fast and secure way of Steganography with the notion of public key.
    • Presented the solution in the seminar "Spectrum Utilization for Mobile Communication: Issues & Challenges to Engineers" organized by Institute of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineers in August, 2010
  • Project on Operating System
    • Developed both 16-bit real and 32-bit protected mode small scale CUI based Operating System LINK
  • Augmented Reality application for Kinect
    • Developed a Virtual Dressing application tackling various computer vision challenges, viz. scale,translation invariance
