About me

My name is Nitin Singh. I am currently employed as Data Science Researcher at Shell Technology Centre, Bangalore (India) within Data Science Research and Development team, where I am working on projects involving numerical optimization and machine learning. I posses expertise and share interests in the field of numerical and evolutionary optimization and general topics in machine learning. I am passionate about the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence in automated control and power of data to reveal hidden and lesser understood underlying trends.

Apart from this, I am also very inclined towards building a sustainable future that is more and more driven by green energy wherever possible. I find the idea of green energy driven future motivating and I look forward to make a meaningful contribution towards this through my skills.

Prior to joining Shell, I did my PhD research as part of a programme co-funded by Shell Global Solutions B.V, in the field of Computational Physics, working at AMOLF, Amsterdam and Leiden University. Specifically, my research focused on applying evolution-inspired optimisation algorithms and numerical computing techniques for rationally designing mechanical metamaterials - an emerging branch of futuristic materials. As a synopsis of the project, it involved - optimisation problem formulation, model-deployment on computer, large volume data retrieval and cleaning, and finally analysis and visualisation.

This is my personal blog where I share some stuff related to topics of my interest.
