Personal Details

Bio

AI, Machine learning, Product Management, tech start-up and software are my skills. Solving client problems, using strategic insights, global teams and execution excellence, is my passion. I develop software products.

I am an entrepreneur. Recently I founded two tech start-ups. The second focused on improving talent acquisition process using AI and machine learning. The product was positioned as a B2B and a B2C solution. This company was successfully acquired.

My first tech start-up was in IoT area. The product we created enabled consumers to connect their home appliances using their smart phones. This company was acquired too.

I am a frequent speaker in AI conferences and meetups. I update my linkedin with my past and present speaking engagements. I also link my YouTube videos of various public speeches. Check here for blogs: linkedin.com/in/sk-reddy/ and here for YouTube videos: https://www.youtube.com/user/skreddy99/videos

I am experienced in product management, consulting, sales and business development with proven track record of target achievement, revenue growth and delivering on organizational objectives.

I owe my success to my ability to build, motivate, and lead high-performance teams. I believe that I am only as strong as the people around me. I focus on attracting and retaining top talent.

I believe in giving back to the community. In the last, I taught MS Comp. Engg. students in Santa Clara University and also in San Jose State University as an adjunct faculty for 10 years. I am particularly happy with the course I created viz., “Technology Entrepreneurship”. I was also on the Advisory Board in San Jose State University.

Frameworks galore.... which one to pick for your use case.

Abstract:
There are so many open sourced and other AI frameworks available. Tensorflow, Caffe, Torch, PyTorch, Caffe2, MXNet, Spark MLlib, CNTK, H2O, DMTK, Theano, Scikit, etc. Each of these frameworks have certain strengths. Some of tem work with certain languages and some do not. In addition, some of these frameworks have been used by popular authors of tech papers and have open sourced the code. Some of these are free and some are not. Some frameworks are better to use for image processing use cases and some are not.

Organizations and individuals are confused on which framework is best for what type of use case and which framework is better. I would like to discuss and compare various frameworks. Also I would like to pick a few use cases that will be implemented as a hands-on exercise using a few frameworks.

Building Neural Machine Translation (NMT)

With global commerce on the rise, collaboration between individuals speaking different languages is essential. The need for real time and accurate Language translation using deep networks is picking up fast.

Historically, language translation was done using rules and examples. This is obviously not scalable and does not cater to the evolution of languages. Later word-based and phrase-based translations were invented that still could not address the need of the hour.

The modern day translations are done using deep networks. I would like to discuss the topic of language translation and deep learning using Tensorflow. The attendees will get a chance to work hands-on to create the building blocks of Language Translator using Tensorflow.

The tricks you can do in NLP

Use cases in Patient records, Contract Analyses, Patent Evaluations, etc. can be done using NLP.

The above could be just a 40-60min speech. Or I could do a workshop to discuss a couple of use-cases and do hands-on exercises.

The travails of a product manager of an AI product

Abstract: Many additional questions compound the already complicated process of product management when we introduce AI to the mix. Artificial intelligence (AI) comes with diversity in models, frameworks, tools, techniques, best practices, etc. AI product management is also afflicted with issues like availability of talent, awareness of AI fundamentals in the organization, middle management block-hole towards AI, etc.

I will discuss about product management in my startup on how it was conceived, developed, released and how the company was eventually successfully acquired. I will talk about my experience as a founder, as a CPO and also as a developer of the product in a startup context. In addition, I will share my product management experiences in a big corporation. I will also compare & contrast the experiences of a PM in a large corp vis-à-vis PM in a start-up.

Neural Network models to create text summarization

Deep networks are being used for text summarization. This would help in industries like news media, publishing and tech.

Image Captioning: How to make computers “understand and describe” an image

Looking at an image and having to describe the contents of the image gives a rich set of opportunities to humans to describe it in multiple ways. Not just the names of the objects in the image, but the relative position and proportion of the images could be explained in different ways. In addition, the task gets even diverse when one has to explain the details of interaction between objects in the image.

The modern day Image captioning solutions include Multimodal RNN, pre-trained CNN models on large Image datasets and the required image datasets.

I will discuss the fundamentals of Neural Networks, talk about text processing using RNNs, explain the current state-of-the-art in pre-training CNN models on large image datasets and share the details of how to create a complex model to train and infer on images & text.

In pursuit of finding an effective solution in healthcare connecting audio, text and image using dee

There is a wealth of information in the unstructured and structured reports of the patients that the doctor can use to make a right decision. In addition, the doctor can use scans and x-rays to fine-tune the treatment plan. Some research is currently underway to connect the two with neural networks. These solutions will help the doctor for a better diagnosis. More work is needed though.

Machine learning can help. NLP has produced a few solutions on how to detect important and relevant health information. Audio processing could be used to record and transcribe the file into text that could be further used for knowledge extraction. Scans, x-rays and similar images could be processed using deep networks to make sense.

I would like to propose neural network architecture to combine the audio, text and image processing to create a effective solution that will help doctors better diagnose patients.

Image study: How Neural Networks answer your questions based on images

Detecting the image of an object is difficult.
Looking at an image and having to describe the contents of the image gives a rich set of opportunities to humans to describe it in multiple ways. Not just the names of the objects in the image, but the relative position and proportion of the images could be explained in different ways. In addition, the task gets even diverse when one has to explain the details of interaction between objects in the image. The initial solution of hard coded visual concepts and sentence templates would not work and also are restrictive.

The modern day Image captioning solutions include Multimodal RNN, pre-trained CNN models on large Image datasets and the required image datasets.

I will discuss the fundamentals of Neural Networks, talk about text processing using RNNs, explain the current state-of-the-art in pre-training CNN models on large image datasets and share the details of how to create a complex model to train and infer on images & text.
