REJEPA: A Novel Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture for Efficient Remote Sensing Image Retrieval
Published in Proceedings of the IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops, 2025
We propose REJEPA (Retrieval with Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture), a novel RS-CBIR Image Retrieval framework that replaces pixel reconstruction with feature-space prediction.

X-JEPA: A Novel Self-Supervised Framework for Cross-Modal Remote Sensing Retrieval via Predictive Semantic Alignment
Published in Proceedings of the Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV) 2026 , 2025
We propose X-JEPA, a predictive self-supervised joint-embedding architecture for cross-modal remote sensing image retrieval (RS‑CMIR). Instead of reconstructing pixels or using contrastive pairs, X‑JEPA learns by forecasting semantic embeddings across modalities, enforcing modality‑invariant alignment through a geometry‑aware Prediction Space Alignment (PSA) loss that preserves latent space structure without requiring paired inputs. Evaluated on large‑scale BEN‑14K (Sentinel‑1/Sentinel‑2) and fMoW (RGB/Sentinel) benchmarks, X‑JEPA achieves up to 11.0% F1 improvement in cross‑modal retrieval and 9.8% in unimodal settings over MAE, SatMAE, CrossMAE, CSMAE‑SESD, CROMA, SkySense, DeCUR, and REJEPA, while remaining comparatively lightweight and parameter‑efficient.

Served as an undergraduate teaching assistant to Prof. Shyamprasad Karagadde from the Mechanical Engg. Department at IIT Bombay. I provided tutoring to 110+ second-year students, facilitating their understanding of key concepts in Applied ML. I also conducted weekly interactive tutorial sessions focused on addressing student questions, solving complex problems, conducting coding demonstrations and clarifying course material to enhance learning outcomes
