Education

Hello, I am Amit.

I am a graduate student in Purdue Computer Science and joined the department after being offered a Ross Fellowship. My research focus is

• Graph Machine Learning
• Large Language Models
• Data Mining

Until 2023, I worked on a project with Prof. Pan Li on Graph Anomaly Detection (GAD) and developed deep learning architectures using neighborhood reconstruction-based graph autoencoder and energy-based models funded by Sony, Belgium.

Before joining Purdue Computer Science in the Fall of 2022, I worked as a research assistant in the Artificial Intelligence and Cybernetics Lab (AGenCy Lab) at Independent University Bangladesh where I worked on several research projects related to deep learning on graphs, funded by the ICT Division Government of Bangladesh. Also, I have experience working as a software engineer at Tiger IT Bangladesh Limited working on the back-end part of applied computer vision projects from real-time video data e.g. automated number plate recognition and object detection.

Earlier in 2020, I finished my undergrad at the Department of Computer Science, University of Dhaka, Bangladesh, securing the first position in the Faculty of Engineering and Technology with a CGPA of 3.96 on a scale of 4.00.
