During his doctoral studies, he developed optimization techniques for machine learning inference and near-memory image processing in hardware for highly constrained IoT edge nodes. He is currently pursuing a new research direction in embedded systems, focusing on the design and development of a compact and affordable refreshable Braille device for early education for individuals with blindness and visual impairments. His research interests lie at the intersection of VLSI design, computer architecture, machine learning, in-memory computing, and image processing, with the goal of developing efficient and intelligent edge AI systems for smart embedded systems and IoT applications.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1588 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/gci\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2024\/09\/rajeev_joshi.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"365\" height=\"373\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/gci\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2024\/09\/rajeev_joshi.png 2038w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/gci\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2024\/09\/rajeev_joshi-293x300.png 293w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/gci\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2024\/09\/rajeev_joshi-1001x1024.png 1001w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/gci\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2024\/09\/rajeev_joshi-768x786.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/gci\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2024\/09\/rajeev_joshi-1501x1536.png 1501w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/gci\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/70\/2024\/09\/rajeev_joshi-2002x2048.png 2002w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 365px) 100vw, 365px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q &amp; A with Dr. Rajeev Joshi<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your current area of research \u2013 and why are you passionate about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Currently, I am pursuing research in embedded systems, focusing on the design and development of a compact and affordable tactile Braille display. I am passionate about this area because it has the potential to significantly enhance the quality of life for individuals with blindness and visual impairments by providing them with greater access to information and education. By creating an efficient and accessible Braille display, I aim to contribute to bridging the gap in educational resources and improving overall inclusivity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the best advice that you have received in your science career?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The best advice I\u2019ve received in my science career is that the easy or shortcut route is seldom the correct one. Embracing the hard way, though more challenging, leads to more substantial and reliable results. By committing to the more rigorous approach, I have grown to appreciate the process and the deeper insights it brings, ultimately leading to more meaningful and impactful work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are you most looking forward to about GCI?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I am most excited about the opportunity GCI offers to collaborate with a vibrant community of educators and students. I look forward to exchanging innovative teaching strategies and gaining insights from diverse perspectives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What would you be doing if you weren\u2019t a scientist?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think I would be a doctor.
