Hi, I’m Sai Saketh Cherukuri, a final-year M.Sc. student in Mathematics with a specialization in Computer Science at the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning. My interests lie at the intersection of machine learning and high-performance computing, with a strong focus on model efficiency and system-level optimization. I work extensively with GPU acceleration and performance tuning, aiming to build solutions that are both accurate and computationally efficient. My recent projects include benchmarking models using the MLPerf inference suite to evaluate and optimize throughput, as well as developing a periocular-based age and gender recognition system using PyTorch and modern deep learning techniques. These experiences reflect my interest in combining mathematical rigor with practical implementation to build scalable, high-performance ML systems.
