About The Industry Academia Conclave 2024
</h2>
</div>
<p class="detail_p_mt" style="text-align: justify;">
The Industry-Academia collaboration is beneficial for an Industry as well as an Institute with the shared
human resource, Infrastructure, lab setup, equipment & facilities. The Industry can take help from an
Institute for carrying out R&D and to solve any technical hurdles, and on the other hand the students &
faculties get a chance to further hone their skills & knowledge in the Industry environment by taking up
internship opportunities & related projects. It is a win-win situation for both parties - the companies
offer business insights and the students contribute proven methodology and expertise. While working on
Industry-sponsored projects at an academic Institute, students learn how to make their methodologies
tangible in real life situations. It helps to create employable students “Industry-ready students”. The
main benefit for companies from this cooperation is the access to the latest research results and
innovative new methodologies. Companies which do not have a close relationship to the academic community
are expected to advance slower. They miss out on early access to the latest research results and
methodologies and then need more time to put these methods into practice. Being one of the leading
Teaching and Research Institutions of India, during this Interactive Industry-Academia Conclave, the IIITA
would like to explore possible collaboration with the participating companies for augmenting its
academics, research, innovation, employability and greater productivity, through various measures.

<p>I am a Research Scientist and Research Lead at Spotify, New York. I work on Knowledge Graphs and
Transformer methods for podcast search and content-based podcast recommendations. I was previously at
Yahoo Research working on Discourse and Dialogue problems where he received the Master Inventor Award
for innovative and impactful work. Prior to Yahoo, I obtained a PhD in 2014 from the School of Computer
Science at Carnegie Mellon University. My research interests are Semantic Knowledge Bases, and Multilingual
Discourse Processing. I previously worked on problems related to Spoken Language Processing,Spoken
Dialog Systems, Learning Semantic Knowledge Bases for Dialog Agents, and Multiparty Conversational
Agents. I served as area chair at EMNLP, session chair at IJCNLP and serve as a member of the program
committees of major conferences in the field of Natural Language Processing and Speech Processing (SIGDial,
ACL, NAACL, Interspeech, EMNLP) and as a reviewer for several international journals viz., Discourse and
Dialogue, Natural Language Engineering, Computational Linguistics, Speech Communication.
At Spotify, I currently lead the research on semantic search and entity-driven retrieval where I develop query
semantic representations for effective understanding of user intent. I previously led the podcast knowledge
graph population efforts and we worked on large scale entity extraction methods. Over recent years, podcasts
have emerged as a novel medium for sharing and broadcasting information over the Internet -- we curated and
released one of the largest audio datasets available for research. Paired with the audio files, they are also a
resource for speech processing and the study of paralinguistic, sociolinguistic, and acoustic aspects of the
domain. This has been successfully adopted by the research community and we conducted a new TREC task
on podcast search and summarization. At Yahoo, I led the efforts on unsupervised large scale multilingual
entity extraction and linking. This work was instrumental in powering document processing pipeline of news
articles displayed on Yahoo.com.</p>
