Leighton P Barnes (Stanford University)
Ashkan Yousefpour (Facebook AI)

Ashkan is currently a Research Scientist at Facebook AI. He works on privacy-preserving machine learning and federated learning, and contributes to PyTorch. He was a Visiting Researcher at University of California, Berkeley and member of the Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research (BAIR). When he was at UC Berkeley, he contributed to FLOW, a framework for deep reinforcement learning in traffic control. Ashkan finished his PhD in Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas. His research was on intersection of Systems, Edge Computing, and Machine Learning, and he worked on improving quality of service in IoT and Deep Leanring Applications through Fog Computing. We he was at UT Dallas, he created Fog Computing Conference Hub.

Swanand Kadhe (University of California Berkeley)

Swanand Kadhe is a postdoctoral researcher in the EECS Department at UC Berkeley. He earned his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Texas A&M University, College Station, in 2017. He is a recipient of the 2016 Graduate Teaching Fellowship from TAMU College of Engineering. He has been a visiting researcher at Nokia Bell Labs, Duke University, and The Chinese University of Hong Kong. From 2009 to 2012, he was a research engineer at the Innovation Labs of TATA Consultancy Services, Bangalore.
