Comment about this website: It is sad that people don't write HTML these days. Frameworks like React, Angular, Vue, etc on top of ECMAScript write HTML, with layers upon layers upon layers of abstraction. Gone are the days when people used to write HTML in their text editors for fun. We all wrote HTML by hand, we looked at the source of HTML files others had written and we all learned from each other (I welcome you to check the source code of this page.) This page is reminiscent of the old days and the old ways we miss so much.

Annada Behera

Currently, I am a PhD candidate and Senior Research Fellow at National Institute of Science Education and Research, Bhubaneswar under the supervision of Subhankar Mishra, where I am engaged in research in differential geometry, information theory and probability theory with applications in computer graphics (rendering), and data-oriented differentiable programming (for machine learning).

Contact me

The best way to reach me is on email, or Telegram. My office is M323, School of Mathematical Sciences, NISER, Bhubaneswar.

I generally hangout in #python, #voidlinux, #linux, #kakoune, #latex rooms of Libera Chat and in rooms #meta, #comfy, #tilde.green of tildeverse under the alias sticher or segfault. I read and sometimes engage in public threads on Usenet newsgroups, tilde.{green,meta,institute,services} and comp.{text.tex,lang.{c,awk,python},unix.{shell,misc}}. Come and say hi.

Programming

I have programming experience in writing models in PyTorch, doing training and inference on headless servers with SSH, environment management with Mamba, Conda and VENV, managing headless Linux environment, image processing with OpenCV and Kornia, mesh processing with Kaolin (Omniverse), Trimesh, Open3D, working with PLY, OBJ, LAS, XYZ file formats, visualization with PyVista (VTK), Pyplot (Matplotlib), photogrammetry with Alicevision Meshroom API, and mesh reconstuction with NeRF and Gaussian Splatting.

The road to wisdom? Well, it's plain and simple to express: Err and err and err again, but less and less and less.
