Research Experience

Researcher Jun 2025 – Current
Bio-Neural Intelligence and Research Advancement Lab, Khulna, Bangladesh
Supervisor: Amit Dutta Roy [B.Sc., M.Sc. BME (KUET); PhD Candidate, Biomedical Engineering (University of Minnesota Twin Cities)]        
  • Leading a 3-member research team, including 2 undergraduate researchers, to design and validate NeuroSwin, a hybrid Swin Transformer-GRU model for Parkinson's Disease classification and brain-region localization from EEG signals.
Research Assistant Intern Oct 2024 – Current
Ulster University, Londonderry, Northern Ireland, UK
Supervisor: Dr. Nazmul Siddique [PhD (University of Sheffield)]        
Collaborator: Prof. Hui Wang (Professor of Artificial Intelligence, Queen's University Belfast; formerly Head of AI Research Centre, Ulster University)
  • Co-developed TransfusionNet, a hybrid architecture with a specialized preprocessing pipeline and early-layer feature fusion for cervical cancer detection. Published in the Q1 journal Results in Engineering (Elsevier, Impact Factor: 9.4).
  • Created a benchmark to evaluate the performance of large language models (LLMs) in identifying disease classes, comparing results against our proposed architecture MobileCoAtNet for stomach infection classification.
  • Investigated the adaptability of foundational AI models for multi-cancer classification, implementing Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning (MAML) for domain adaptation to enhance generalizability.
  • Actively researching the feasibility of large language models (LLMs) for disease diagnosis, reasoning, and treatment follow-up in medical applications.
  • Designed SALT, a spiking neural decoder that uses a state-space model to adaptively set firing thresholds, establishing a causal accuracy-energy Pareto benchmark across six architecture families for closed-loop brain-computer interfaces; under review in Neural Networks.
  • Developed CT-SALT, a cross-timescale extension of SALT in which a slow population branch gates a fast spiking branch's firing threshold, improving decoding accuracy and training stability at no added energy cost.
Undergraduate Research Assistant Feb 2023 – Sep 2024
Department of Biomedical Engineering, KUET, Khulna, Bangladesh
Supervisor: Prof. Mostafa Zaman Chowdhury [B.Sc. EEE (KUET); M.Sc., PhD Electronics Engineering (Kookmin University, South Korea)]        
  • Independently conceived, implemented, and authored a solo study on gallbladder cancer classification using ensemble learning, published at ICEEICT 2024.
  • Designed a hybrid model for gallbladder cancer classification using parallel transfer learning, feature fusion, and LSTM as the undergraduate thesis, of which the ICEEICT 2024 paper formed a portion; the full study is in preparation for Expert Systems with Applications.
  • Conducted the literature review supporting the feature-fusion approach, drafted portions of the thesis manuscript, handled data preprocessing, and presented the completed work at the final thesis defense.
