Prashant Shrestha

I’m an electronics engineering graduate from Pulchowk Campus, IOE, Nepal. I work with Dr. Binod Bhattarai as a research assistant at NAAMII. I am interested in developing robust models in the presence of limited and/or noisy public data. My research primarily revolves around federated learning, self-supervised learning, multimodal learning and learning with noisy labels. I am currently exploring client selection for semi-asynchronous federated learning.

Research Interests: Federated Learning, Self-supervised Learning, Multimodal Learning, Learning with Noisy Labels
