Hi there, I'm Siddharth Dinesh!

Here is a photo of me at the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland. I was lucky to spend 5 months in Dublin, Ireland during my undergraduate days.

Right now, I'm a second year student at the University of California, San Diego pursuing a Master's in Computer Science. I plan to graduate in March 2019, hopefully after I write a master's thesis. I've primarily focused on NLP having taken 2 courses on recommender systems by Dr. Julian McAuley, a course on Advanced NLP offered by Prof. Ndapa Nakashole as well as courses in the fields of HCI and Data Science.

Before coming to UCSD as a grad student, I studied Computer Science and Economics at BITS Pilani. During my undergraduate education, I wrote an undergraduate thesis about evaluating baselines of recommender systems for research publications with Mr. DLib. When I'm away from the computer screen, I enjoy writing, jogging, and biking in the outdoors. Read more about my exciting non-academic life over at my wordpress site.

The rest of this website is a work in progress. I will soon have more detailed descriptions of my projects.
