Current Projects:

Prediction on default loans in Peer-to-Peer lending using machine learning techniques: This research project involves two undergraduate students. We analyze datasets from P2P lending platforms to predict default loans using classification algorithms.
Classification and Sentiment Analysis of Highway Work-zone Tweets using Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing. This is a collaborative research project involving researchers from different universities in the USA.
Bandwidth Estimation for Future Bigdata Collaboration Network: We are analyzing the research collaboration data of the authors of project proposals and papers to estimate the bandwidth requirements of future big data collaboration networks.
Distributed Multipoint Control Unit (MCU): The goal is to support Large-scale Video conferencing based on P2P networks without using expensive statically placed servers provided by different service providers.
Beyond Herd Immunity: Post-pandemic analysis of COVID-19 using Mathematical Modeling and Machine learning for developing a general pandemic prediction model for Future COVID-like Infectious Diseases.
Emotional and Sentimental Analysis of the Russian-Ukraine War from Twitter’s Perspective using NLP methods. In this project, we also analyze people's perspectives on cyber warfare using Reddit posts.
