Raj Mishra

I’m a MS CS student in Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science at The University of Texas at Dallas. Before this I was working at Société Générale as a Specialist Software Engineer looking over ELIOT (a large scale database system which stores all the equity derivative trades executed at SocGen).

I’ve a keen interest in Mathematics and applications of the same. Recently I found myself exploring stuff about Machine Learning and Neural Network and understanding further about the core underlying concept of the same. I don’t believe in blindly using some library without understanding the core implementation. I would like to work in the field of software development with a blend of data science in it.

Interests

I tend to enjoy reading and learning new things (not just academic but random stuff as well, like did you know 1 + 2 + 3 + … + inf = -1/12 - explanation here).
Apart from academia related things I spend my time listening to music (rock, metal, r&b) and using youtube as my primary source of entertainment.
Few channels on youtube I highly recommend :

  1. Numberphile
  2. Computerphile
  3. Lex Fridman
  4. Vox

Apart from this I mostly browse Twitter (@rajmishra1995) and Reddit as my primary social media account.
