Vighnesh Prabhu“Vigz”

ML researcher · CS&E @ The Ohio State University · ML for science & engineering

I'm a CS and math senior at Ohio State, and most of my time goes into one question: what can you say about the places you didn't measure? In research that means rebuilding full maps from a handful of sensors or cloud-covered satellite images, along with an honest read on how unsure the model is. Outside the lab I build data tools end to end, coach at the boxing club, and occasionally simulate F1 tyre strategy for fun.

Seeking: New-grad full-time industry roles; graduate school (CS PhD in ML for science/engineering, or quant/MFE master's).
