About Me

Hi, my name is Kaushik Pillalamarri, and I am a current PhD Student and researcher in the Department of Computer Science (CSC) at the North Carolina State University. I am currently working with Dr.Dongkuan Xu on accelerating large vision-language models during inference with an emphasis on their trustworthiness. I'm also working as a Research Intern at RENCI, on the Proto-OKN Fabric project, currently contributing to train LLMs on their graph repositories to generate new links in-between nodes of graphs and also find connections between nodes of different ones.
