M.Sc., Purdue university, Computer Science (2022)

Welcome! I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Computer Science at Purdue University, working under the supervision of Prof. Bharat Bhargava. During my Ph.D., I have worked closely with Prof. Michael Stonebraker for the REALM/SKOD project. Previously, I served as a faculty member at Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology (AUST) and United International University (UIU).

My research interests revolve around heterogeneous data management in general, but the application areas of my work have been interdisciplinary, spanning from data discovery and novelty management to multimodal information retrieval, natural language processing, and video feature extraction. In collaboration with non-academic parties (e.g., West Lafayette Police Department, NGC), my systems are inspired by real-world use cases.
I am interested in designing mechanisms for identifying patterns and novelties in heterogeneous data sources toward a better understanding of the data, focusing on the explainability of the models to better use them for situational awareness.
