I am a fifth year PhD student at the University of British Columbia under the supervision of Prof. Leonid Sigal and Prof. James J. Little. I completed M.Sc. in Computer Science at the University of British Columbia under the supervision of Prof. James J. Little.  Before starting my PhD, I worked as a Computer Vision Developer Intern at SPORTLOGiQ Inc. in Montreal, Canada. I also worked as a lecturer at Islamic University of Technology, Gazipur, Bangladesh before my after finishing my undergraduate from the same university.

Research Interest

My research area encompasses computer vision and machine learning. I am currently working on learning object-centric latent representations and reasoning between them for the task of semantic segmentation, especially for cases when limited data is available. As a Master's student I worked on 3D human pose estimation.  I am also interested in grounding language to computer vision tasks and in multi-modal learning.
