1/n. Resuming thread on graduating students. Meet @rishihere, who just completed his PhD in Computer Science from IIT Gandhinagar. His research focuses on making health sensing ubiquitous low-cost, scalable, and real-world deployable.

2/n. In his IMWUT (Core A*) paper, Rishiraj showed how modern smartwatches fall short in estimating physical fitness parameters. He proposed an alternative: sensing respiration using a low-res thermal camera integrated into a smartwatch.

The algo guarantees a 2-approx for pairs that are at least k apart. We (Manoj) present the first significant improvement in over 25 years: our algo runs in similar time but works for much closer pairs—those just ~log k apart. Single author FOCS. 2/n @cse_iitgn

Yet another foundational result from the dept by Manoj Gupta. In his words-- A foundational result by Dor, Halperin, and Zwick (FOCS '96, SICOMP '00) gave a near-quadratic time algorithm (~V²) for computing approximate shortest paths between all vertex pairs. 1/n.

Will try to do a series of posts featuring our graduating phd students from @cse_iitgn @iitgn. First is Dhara Thakkar. @DharaThakkar. Coming from a modest background, she has done spectacularly in her phd. She has solved long standing problems, and already won acclaims 1/N.

She solved the question of group order being in QCMA. In STOC 2024 (one of the top 2 conferences in CS Theory), Dhara was nominated as a "Rising Star". The other nominations were phd candidates from MIT and Columbia, two of the best theory schools !! 2/N.

Terrible service from @IndiGo6E . Not able to add or confirm wheelchair for senior citizen for 6E292 Kolkata-Ahmedabad. Very very disappointing. Requesting @IndiGo6E to resolve.

Just to be fair, after more than a day of being on call, this was resolved. @IndiGo6E finally promised wheelchairs and kept their promise.

The CRG submission took 9 months to get reviewed. However, the time between the approval letter and the first installment of funds was less than 72 hours. Credit where it is due. Thanks. @serbonline @IndiaDST @Sandeep_1966
