I'm a passionate Data Enthusiast and Open Source Contributor from India, with a keen interest in leveraging data to build intelligent solutions. I thrive on exploring new datasets, uncovering hidden patterns, and collaborating on impactful projects.

I believe in the power of community and collaborative learning.
I am a dedicated contributor to ArviZ, the essential Python library for Bayesian model analysis (diagnostics, comparison, and posterior predictive checks). My work focuses on building robust statistical functions and high-utility visualization tools to advance Bayesian data science.

-
Model Comparison Tooling (
arviz-stats)- Bayes Factor Implementation (PR #52 & #104): Developed the core
bayes_factor()function to enable rigorous statistical model comparison in Bayesian frameworks, including support for multi-variable input and customizable prior odds. - KDE & Bayes Factor Refactor (PR #95): Improved the internal logic for Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) and Bayes Factor computations for better accuracy, readability, and performance.
- Bayes Factor Implementation (PR #52 & #104): Developed the core
-
High-Utility Visualization (
arviz-plots)- Plotting Predictive Intervals (PR #334): Developed
plot_ppc_intervals()for Bayesian Model Calibration, a critical visualization that plots Posterior Predictive Intervals against observed data to diagnose model fit across all backends (Matplotlib, Bokeh, Plotly). - Bayes Factor Visualization (PR #158): Implemented
plot_bf()to visually represent Bayes Factor outputs, significantly improving user interpretation of model comparison results. - Rug Plot Support (PR #192): Added
rug_plotfunctionality toplot_dist(), enhancing insight into 1D marginal posterior distributions.
- Plotting Predictive Intervals (PR #334): Developed
-
Documentation & Testing
- Onboarding Documentation (PR #2444): Updated the official “Getting Started” guide in the legacy ArviZ repo to reduce friction and improve clarity for new users.
- Test Enhancements (PR #177): Extended internal data generation and test reliability for multiple statistical plotting functions in
arviz-plots.
I share my knowledge and experience through blog posts explaining foundational Bayesian concepts and the intuition behind my open-source work.
