RESEARCH

Applied Research

My current focus is on AI ML techniques applied to industry challenges. Key areas:

Ethical AI and Risk Mitigation: Methods to ensure AI systems are fair, transparent, safe, reliable, and accountable. This includes identifying and mitigating biases in data and models, as well as developing risk assessment frameworks and ethical guidelines for AI deployment. Applications: Responsible AI solution development, accurate diagnostic for minorities.
Predictive Models: Statistical techniques and machine learning models to analyze current and historical data and make predictions about future events. Applications: forecasting sales, business planning, customer churn.
Computer Vision: Systems that can interpret and make decisions based on visual data. Objectives of computer vision include segmentation, object detection, localization, and image recognition. Applications: Medical imaging diagnostics, autonomous vehicles, quality management.
Natural Language Processing (NLP): Algorithms and models to enable machines to understand, interpret, and respond to human language in a natural way. NLP includes chatbots, sentiment analysis, translation, and summarization tools. Applications: increase employee productivity (AI assistants), customer service automation, language translation services.
Automatic Speech Recognition and Synthesis: Systems that can accurately convert spoken language into text (speech recognition) and generate human-like speech from text (speech synthesis). Applications: Virtual assistants, transcription services, accessibility tools for visually impaired individuals.
Recommendation Systems: Designing algorithms that predict and suggest items of interest to users based on their past behaviors and preferences. Applications: E-commerce platforms, streaming services, social media feeds.
Personalization and User Modeling: Creating tailored experiences for users by understanding their behavior, preferences, and needs through data analysis and machine learning. Applications: Personalized marketing, adaptive learning platforms.
