WELCOME 

I am currently working as an Assistant Professor (Grade II) and Head of the Department of Data Science and AI at the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Dharwad, Karnataka. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at IPTIF, IIT Palakkad, holding a Ph.D. from the National Institute of Technology Puducherry and a Master's degree from the Madras Institute of Technology.

My postdoctoral research has been conducted in collaboration with teams from IPTIF, IIT Palakkad, and Swinburne University of Technology, Australia. My research is primarily centered on the domains of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML). 

My research has been recognized through publications, including an IEEE Transaction, IEEE Letters, and a granted patent. I have also contributed to the open-source community by developing a software package in R programming for random projection-based feature extraction.
