Well, this week's assignment is to blog about a senior IST graduate student from our respective labs. Unfortunately, Dr. Wang currently does not have a student who is in third or fourth year of Ph.D. So, I have decided to introduce to you Saurabh Kataria, a third year IST student co-advised by Dr. Giles and Dr. Prasenjit Mitra. Before coming to Penn State, Saurabh was working as a software developer in GlobalLogic, a startup based in India. He has a Bachelors degree in Computer Science from Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University.
Saurabh is currently working on extraction of data points from two-dimensional plots in digital documents. He has published four papers around this topic, two of them as the first author. He, like me, is interested in understanding the digital media and extracting useful information that can help create more utility for a digital artifact. Best wishes to him for a great career!
