About

As the Dean of the Birla School of Applied Sciences and the Birla School of Engineering & Technology at Birla Global University, I lead with a passion for academic excellence and innovation. With over 26 years of experience in teaching and research, my journey in academia has been driven by a relentless commitment to advancing the fields of computer vision, pattern recognition, multimedia computing, and software metrics.

I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from Jadavpur University (2015), an M.E. in Computer Engineering (2007), and a B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering (1998). Over the course of my career, I have mentored more than 10 M.Tech. scholars and currently supervise 4 Ph.D. candidates, with one candidate having successfully completed their degree under my guidance.

My research contributions are widely recognized, with publications featured in high-impact journals such as IEEE Transactions on Multimedia and IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, as well as in prestigious international conferences including ICPR and ICAPR. This body of work is reflected in my scholarly metrics, marked by an h-index of 8 and an i10-index of 7.

Beyond research, I actively engage with the academic and professional communities. I serve as a peer reviewer for several top-tier journals, contribute to technical program committees for national and international conferences, and have chaired multiple international conferences. I have also led numerous Faculty Development Programs (FDPs) and Short-Term Training Programs (STTPs), fostering a culture of continuous learning and development within the institution.

I am a proud member of esteemed professional organizations including IEEE, ISTE, and CSI. My commitment to advancing research and fostering academic innovation continues to drive my initiatives and leadership within the academic community.
