About

I am currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT), Bhopal, India, since September 2025. I previously served as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the National Sun Yat-sen University (NSYSU), Kaohsiung, Taiwan, from August 2024 to August 2025. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Applications from MANIT Bhopal, India, in 2021, and my M.Tech. and B.E. degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from RGPV Bhopal, India, in 2012 and 2006, respectively.

I have more than eleven years of teaching experience and have published thirteen research papers in SCIE, Web of Science, and Scopus-indexed journals and conferences. I have also registered two design patents with the Patent Office, Government of India. I serve as a verified reviewer for IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology, IEEE Transactions on Cognitive Communications and Networking, IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, and the IEEE Internet of Things Journal. I was honored with the Best Reviewer Award from ICT Express in 2025.

My research interests include computer vision, deep learning, video classification, and metaheuristic algorithms.
