Research Interests
Development of techniques to improve the environmental footprint of energy-intensive facilities and deliver Smarter and Greener Data-Centers in collaboration with the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) in the framework of the Indo Dutch Science Industry Collaboration program.
Development of Autism Detection tools for early diagnosis : We developed advanced machine learning techniques to extract the features and use a backbone to predict if the child has ASD or not. We also designed a framework using multimodal data for ASD prediction.
Resource Management in Cloud/Fog landscape : Developed a Module Mapping Algorithm for efficient utilization of resources by efficiently deploying Application Modules in Fog-Cloud Infrastructure for IoT based applications. Developed novel optimization approaches for virtual machine placement in cloud/fog scenarios.
Post Quantum Cryptography: We presented the aptness of population based meta-heuristic approaches to compute a shortest non-zero vector in a lattice for solving the Shortest lattice Vector Problem (SVP). This problem has a great many applications such as optimization, communication theory, cryptography, etc. At the same time, SVP is notoriously hard to predict, both in terms of running time and output quality.
Development of an app for Artificial Emotional Intelligence: it is the ability of computers to recognize and respond to emotions in others by evaluating data such as facial expressions, gestures, tone of voice, keyboard force, and more. With the help of this capability, people and machines will be able to connect in a way that is much more natural and reminiscent of human-to-human communication.
A path planning algorithm for collective monitoring using autonomous drones.
Developed a project “ED165” for Connecticut State Department of Education, Choice Solutions Pvt Ltd, Hyderbad.
Deep working knowledge of machine learning approaches and optimization algorithms such as Particle swarm optimization, Genetic algorithms, Ant colony, Memetic algorithms, etc.
Systems for improved generation of avatars for virtual Try-on of garments
