Hi, I am Pritika. I’m currently working as a Research Associate at Adobe Research. I graduated with a Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science from Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (BITS, Pilani). I am interested in Human-LM interaction for creative tasks.

Research

At Adobe Research, I primarily work with Dr. Aparna Garimella and Dr. Balaji V. Srinivasan on document experience projects which involve creation and transformation of documents into other consumable formats (reports, slides, infographics). My focus areas include ambiguity resolution, personalization, factuality, content planning and generation of structured content (tables and charts).

I completed my bachelor’s thesis under the supervision of Prof. Lifu Huang at Virginia Tech. My project focused on the extraction of key-value pairs from domain and language agnostic visually rich documents, utilizing NLP and graph techniques. During my undergraduate studies, I explored various research fields including biometric authentication, route optimization, and time-series forecasting under the guidance of Prof. Kamlesh Tiwari.
