Biography

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Daffodil International University, Dhaka, and a doctoral researcher in Computer Science and Engineering at Jahangirnagar University, supervised by Professor Dr. Mohammad Shorif Uddin.

My research sits where machine learning, human behavior analysis and data visualization meet. I study how people behave on digital platforms (what drives consumer decisions in social commerce, how readers engage with online news, how sentiment forms around public figures) and how data-driven models can explain those patterns and the trade-offs they create for users.

My work has appeared with Springer, IEEE, ACM, Taylor & Francis, IGI Global and AIP, and received the Excellent Contributor Award at the International Conference on Intelligent Computing & Optimization (ICO 2022). Alongside research, I care deeply about outcome-based education, and I am the author of “Teaching with Outcome: A Faculty Guide to OBE”.
