Name:Saikat Chakraborty
Bio:

I am currently a Senior Researcher at the Research in Software Engineering (RiSE) group at Microsoft Research. Earlier, I graduated with Ph.D. in computer Science from Columbia University in the City of New York advised by Professor Baishakhi Ray. I wrote my Ph.D. thesis on Learning to Edit Code.

My primary research area is Software Engineering. In particular, I focus on Artificial Intelligence for Software Engineering (AI4SE). My research passion is Programming Language Processing (PLP) – A coalescence between Software Engineering and Machine Learning. More specifically, I am motivated by building tools and techniques that reduces software engineering practitioners’ burden by automating tasks they have to undergo in their everyday job. Over the years, I have been building developer assistance tools with research collaboration across Software Engineering, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing.
