Hi there! I'm Subhankar

I'm a Computer Science Ph.D. candidate at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities.

I am advised by Professor Shashi Shekhar and am a member of the Spatial Computing Research Group. I also work with Professor Aneesh Subramanian.

I am a Graduate Assistant at iHARP, where we aim to reduce uncertainty in sea level rise predictions from ice sheet melt.

I co-organized the 2025 NSF HDR Machine Learning Challenge on Anomaly Detection.
Pre-print of the paper describing the Anomaly Detection Challenge.
Check out our AAAI Workshop on Anomaly Detection in Scientific Domains.

Upcoming Events

  • I will join Oakridge National Laboratory as a Research Intern in Spring 2025.
    I am excited to be working on Diffusion models for forecasting.
  • I will join Amazon (Bellevue, WA) as an Applied Scientist Intern in Summer 2025.

Current Projects

  • Spatial variability-aware downscaling of climate variables using Generative Models
  • Adaptive Climate Model Combination strategies
  • Spatio-temporal Anomaly Detection in climate variables
  • Causal discovery of factors influencing climate variables
