Please note that this website is still under construction!

On this home page, I'll introduce myself and talk about my academic and research interests. I also provide links to my photo gallery full with my personal and family photographs that I especially like.

I am a Graduate Student at the Department of Computer Science in The University of Texas at Dallas (utdallas). My current research area centres around Natural Language Processing (NLP), a branch of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is a comparatively new field in Computer Science.

Currently, I work as a Research Assistant under Dr. Vincent Ng at utdallas.

I earned my B.Sc. degree in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), the leading engineering university in Bangladesh. The topic of my Undergraduate Thesis was "Pattern Recognition Using the Neural Network Model".

CSE is one of the youngest departments of BUET. It has become the most popular and demanded one among undergraduate students in the recent past. The department started to offer bachelor degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from 1986. To have a look at the CSE department, please click here.
