Hello! I am Koushikey Chhapariya
I am currently a PhD research student in the Satellite Image Processing lab at the Centre of Studies in Resources Engineering (CSRE), IIT Bombay. I am working on an object-oriented deep CNN-based model for detecting selective features on hyperspectral images under the guidance of Prof Krishna Mohan Buddhiraju. I am a recipient of the Prime Minister Research Fellowship, May 2021, under the Lateral entry scheme. I have also been awarded two international visiting research fellowships: Fulbright-Nehru Doctoral Research Fellowship to visit the USA and Raman-Charpak to visit France. I have completed my Master of Technology (M.Tech) from the Indian Institute of Remote Sensing (IIRS), ISRO.
My research interest lies in the processing and analysis of satellite images such as hyperspectral, multispectral and thermal data. Currently, I am building a robust deep learning model for object detection on hyperspectral images considering the spatio-spectral aspects.
