I am interested in the area of Pattern Recognition, Machine Learning Methods & Algorithms, Computer Vision, Medical Image Computing and Biometrics where my aim is to explore the knowledge of Mathematics, Cognitive Science, Artificial Intelligence and Biological Sciences, in providing the solutions to the problems related Computer Vision, Intelligent Medical Computation, Human Computer Interaction and Biometric-based Authentication Systems.
Presently, I'm doing research in the following problem domain.
Vitality Enabled Individual Authentication System
Electrocardiogram (ECG) as a Biometric:
Biometric authentication systems are become the basis of trust to human society from the beginning of the last decade, but the security of system can be threatened by presenting a non-live or fake biometric sample for authentication. Although, different techniques have been proposed in the past those address the problem of vitality detection from biometrics but these techniques are far away from the final solution. We are exploring the feasibility of new modality such as physiological signals especially, electrocardiogram (ECG) as a vitality-enabled biometric. We are in process to develop a vitality enabled novel identity verification system using ECG.

Multimodal Biometrics
The biometric systems rely on the evidence of any single biometric information may not achieve the desired performance due to noisy data, non-universality, lack of uniqueness of the chosen biometric trait. The performance of the biometric systems can be improved by combining the multiple biometric characteristics. These systems are referred as multimodal biometric systems. We are in stage to prepare a novel multibiometric system that fuses ECG with the face and the fingerprint biometrics. The advantage of this system is that it is robust enough aganist falsification to be enrolled, due to the vitality feature of the ECG signal. In addition, the system would achieve the optimum accuracy.

Computer Vision
Objects Detection & Actions Classification: In computer vision I am particularly interested in object recognition, event detection and actions classification in moving objects. The goal of this work is to efficiently detect the object categories such as bicycles, cars, motors, and dogs from moving scene. While doing actions classification the emphasis of this research is given on the recognition of human actions such as, drinking, smoking, running, walking etc.
