Rajeev Verma

I am a first year PhD student at AMLab / Delta Lab supervised by Eric Nalisnick. Previously, I studied Electrical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Patna (IITP) and Artificial Intelligence at the University of Amsterdam (UvA).

My general research interests are in AI safety and responsible AI, and aim to build systems that are maximally useful to the society with provable guarantees. To this end, I am excited about uncertainty quantification and decision making, human-AI compatibility and complementarity, deferral systems, etc.
