Biography
I am a research scientist in the Socia-Technical Innovations team of the Environment business unit. Previously, I was a post-doctoral fellow in the Conservation Decisions Team. I was a member of the Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (MLAI) FSP.
My interest is in the pragmatic applications of MLAI. I aim to develop MLAI solutions to solve problems in ecology, sustainability and healthcare.
My current research is focused on Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI). I have been trying to explain complex time series models developed using deep neural networks and graph neural networks to humans. In doing so, I have been exploring any latent relationships between features and targets.
I obtained a PhD in Information Sciences from the University of South Australia. Within my PhD, I developed ensemble methods for text classification incorporating XAI. I have also completed an MSc in Computer Science from St Francis Xavier University, Canada. As part of my MSc, I developed a framework for healthcare workflow verification using Computation Tree Logic (CTL). I have obtained a BSc in Computer Science and Engineering from Khulna University, Bangladesh. In between studies, I have worked as part of the teaching faculty at Khulna University, Bangladesh and as a software engineer at different organizations.
