I am Rashika Rai, a final-year B.Sc. (Hons.) Physics student at the University of Delhi working in computational gravitational-wave astrophysics and deep learning for GW signal analysis.
My current bachelor’s thesis focused on CASPER, a lightweight ResNet-based framework for gravitational-wave detection using real GWOSC strain data with FastSHAP interpretability and low-SNR robustness analysis. Through this work, I have developed a strong interest in multimessenger GW astronomy and computational astrophysics. This work is under review in Astronomy and Computing journal.
I would be very interested in contributing to ongoing research projects in any groups available during the summer, either in-person or remotely if possible.
I can provide my CV for reference. Thank you very much for your time and consideration.
Regards,
Rashika Rai
