Hi! I’m Nakul Upadhya and I’m a Doctoral Candidate at The University of Toronto in the Optimization and Machine Learning (OptiMaL) Lab at the University of Toronto under Professor Eldan Cohen. My research focuses on developing inherently interpretable machine learning models for tabular and time-series data, with applications in manufacturing and healthcare.
