About Me

I am a Ph.D student in Computer Science at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), with research interests in Computer Vision, Machine Learning and XR-Technologies. My research goal is to develop robust and interpretable models for egocentric 3D human pose estimation by leveraging spatial-temporal context and body-environment interactions from first-person visual data.

Research Interests

• Computer Vision
• Human Pose Estimation
• Spatio-Temporal Modeling

Work Experience

• Graduate Research Assistant, UTSA (January 2024 - Current)
• Software Engineer - Kona Software Lab (August 2021 - August 2023)

Education

• BSc in Computer Science and Engineering, Khulna University of Engineering & Technology, 2020
