Tanmoy Sarkar Pias
Postdoctoral Scholar, Urology
BioI am currently working on multimodal, multi-task foundation models to detect cancer and improve surgery. I am exploring image segmentation models, foundation models, and reinforcement learning with agents. My previous work spans a range of directions, including knowledge-guided machine learning models, systematic evaluation of high-risk models, mitigation of deficiencies and biases, automatic generation of gradient-based test cases, decision boundary estimation and analysis of deep learning models, and developing approaches to make machine learning models more fair and reliable.
