Joyanta J. Mondal / জয়ন্ত মন্ডল
I am a researcher from Dhaka, Bangladesh, based in Dallas, Texas. I received my M.S. in Computer Science from the University of Delaware.
Outside research: avid gamer (known by the in-game name LePotatoGuy), traveller, anime and comic enthusiast, cyclist, and a chess player rated ~400 (which means I lose often and confidently). For more about me, visit here.
Fun facts: I've visited nearly half the states in the U.S., and my Erdős number is 4.
Research Interest
My earlier research focused on developing lightweight and deployable machine learning systems, particularly computer vision under resource constraints for medical imaging and environmental sensing. I'm now extending this focus toward trustworthy and reliable AI, studying how foundation models can be adapted and evaluated while continuing my work in medical imaging. My interests include parameter-efficient fine-tuning, evidence-grounded reasoning and memory in large language models, reliable model evaluation, and reinforcement learning for structured learning and decision-making.
