My name is Saikat Ghosh and I am super-excited that you are reading this!
I did my BS / B. Tech (Hons) from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and MS from Clemson University, SC. in Mechanical Engineering. Mr. Anurag Ghosh, a graduating senior at the University of California, Berkeley, helped me immensely to develop this course.
Professionally, I come from an Engineering Product Development background with experience in a diverse range of industries. I have decades of software development experience related to my engineering work.
I eventually shifted my focus towards Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning since I saw that knowledge in this field would allow me to solve problems that would be difficult to solve using traditional programming. Whether it would be solving problems such as recognizing the name of someone from a picture, trying to determine potential health issues one might have from an X-ray, or identifying defects with mechanical components, I feel that there is a lot one can do with knowledge in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning which is why I became compelled to teach others about this field.
I have been working on this field for the last several years and I do strongly believe we will be seeing a tsunami of changes in the world where Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning will play a key role. I am quite passionate about this subject and I most certainly look forward to sharing my knowledge with you!
