I received my PhD from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Maryland, College Park.

I am currently working as a Research Associate at the Speech Communication Lab (SCL), University of Maryland. My research focuses on ways to improve the performance of automatic speech recognition amidst of variability in speech due to speaking style, ambient noise, speaker differences etc. I am collaborating with Dr. Nam (Haskins Laboratories) to design a speech recognition system based on the concepts borrowed from gestural phonology and linguistics.

In the past I have worked on music information retrieval, language identification, speaker recognition, speech coding, remote-object detection, edge detection and 3D volume rendering.

My areas of interest are -

· Speech & Language Processing (speech recognition, speech inversion and language recognition)

· Gesture Recognition

· Machine Learning & Pattern Recognition

· Time-series Prediction

· Signal Processing for Feature extraction

· Natural Language Processing

· Audio Content Analysis & Information Retrieval

· Semantic Information Retrieval
