About Me

My teaching philosophy is centered on fostering conceptual clarity, critical thinking, and practical problem-solving among students. As an Assistant Professor at Dayananda Sagar University, I aim to create a learner-centered environment where students are encouraged to explore, question, and innovate. I integrate real-world applications, coding practices, and research exposure into my teaching to bridge the gap between theory and practice. My research interests lie in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, and Deep Learning, with a focus on building intelligent systems that address real-world challenges. My work includes projects on medical data analysis, predictive modeling, and smart surveillance systems using computer vision. I am particularly interested in improving model performance, scalability, and interpretability, and I aim to contribute to interdisciplinary and impactful research in AI-driven domains. My long-term goal is to advance research while mentoring students to become skilled professionals and researchers in the field of computer science.

Research

My research focuses on applying Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to real-world problems in security and healthcare. I have published a paper on user authentication using ASCII art generation, and my dissertation explores medical image analysis using deep learning. My work aims to develop efficient and practical intelligent systems.

Research Interests: Medical Image Processing, Computer Vision, Applied Machine Learning, User Authentication
