Wichita State University. JB 217, 1845 Fairmount St., Wichita, KS 67260.

I am an Assistant Professor in the School of Computing at Wichita State University, where I direct The AIMS (Artificial Intelligence, Mobility, and Safety) Research Lab. I earned my PhD in Computer Science from the University of Memphis, under the guidance of Dr. Myounggyu Won. Prior to that, I completed my MS in Computer Science at the University of Memphis in 2022 and obtained my B.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Dhaka in Bangladesh.
Before pursuing my PhD, I worked as a software engineer at Samsung R&D Institute Bangladesh and served as a Senior Officer in the Information and Communication Technology Division at Agrani Bank PLC. My research interests encompass Intelligent Transportation Systems, Connected and Autonomous Vehicles, V2X Communication, Reinforcement Learning, Computer Vision, Speech Emotion Recognition, Cybersecurity, and the Internet of Things (IoT).
I am looking for one or two self motivated PhD student(s) to join the The AIMS Lab. Students with a strong background in Machine Learning, Statistics and Probability, and Python coding are encourage to send their resumes to lokesh[dot]das[AT]wichita[dot]edu.
