Research summary
AI-generated

Rajiv Khanna works on the mathematical foundations of machine learning, focusing on how training algorithms and data selection methods behave and why they generalize (or fail to). His work covers topics like data summarization (coresets), understanding optimizer stability (e.g., SGD, SAM), robustness of deep networks, and efficient methods for large-scale computation such as distributed learning and matrix approximation. This research is largely theoretical/methodological, aiming to explain and improve the reliability and efficiency of machine learning systems.
