Biography

I am a passionate data scientist and graduate research associate at the University of Texas at El Paso, specializing in machine learning, deep learning, and AI. I am currently pursuing PhD degree in Data Science, focusing on Bayesian Neural Networks (BNN) and randomized smoothing techniques to enhance model robustness, particularly in adversarial settings. With a solid academic background, including an M.S. in Applied Statistics from the University of Dhaka, I have contributed to notable research on survival analysis and machine learning applications. I also worked as a senior data scientist at Insightin Technology Bangladesh, where I managed client projects, designed ETL pipelines, and utilized NLP techniques for healthcare data analysis. I have also received prestigious awards, such as the Conference Award for Scientists by the International Society for Clinical Biostatistics (ISCB). My technical skills span multiple programming languages and data science tools, including R, Python.
