I am Sreyan Ghosh, a 4th-year Computer Science Ph.D. student at the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) and a student researcher at Nvidia. At UMD, I conduct my research at Gamma Lab under the mentorship of Prof. Dinesh Manocha and Prof. Ramani Duraiswami. At Nvidia, I work with the ADLR and Cosmos World Model team. My research focuses on advancing multimodal intelligence, with an emphasis on audio—spanning speech, sounds, and music. I work on challenges such as building data- and compute-efficient audio models, improving audio representation learning, generating synthetic data, and enhancing perception and reasoning in AI systems. My research is proudly supported by the NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship.
I maintain a list of my publications and research implementations under the Research tab. I am always open to collaborations, and please feel free to drop me a mail!
