Biography
Dhruv Batra is an Assistant Professor with the Bradley Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA, USA, where he leads the VT Machine Learning and Perception Group. His current research interests include intersection of machine learning, computer vision, and AI, with a focus on developing intelligent systems that are able to concisely summarize their beliefs about the world, integrate information and beliefs across different subcomponents or “modules” of AI (vision, language, and reasoning) to extract a holistic view of the world, and explain why they believe what they believe. Research from his laboratory has been featured in Bloomberg Business, the Boston Globe, MIT Technology Review, Newsweek, WVTF Radio IQ, and a number of popular press magazines and newspapers.
Prof. Batra was a recipient of the Carnegie Mellon Dean’s Fellowship in 2007, two Google Faculty Research Awards in 2013 and 2015, the Virginia Tech Teacher of the Week in 2013, the Army Research Office Young Investigator Program Award in 2014, the National Science Foundation CAREER Award in 2014, and the Virginia Tech CoE Outstanding New Assistant Professor Award in 2015.
