About Me

Hello, I am Joyanta!

I am from Dhaka, Bangladesh; a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at The University of Delaware. My research interests include Computer Vision, Cloud Computing, and Human-Computer Interaction. At present, as a dedicated researcher, I am actively engaged in exploring different projects that allow me to delve deeper into the areas that captivate my interest. I have co-authored several conference papers and presented my research papers in different well-reputed conferences. My researches have been published in premier journals (Nature Scientific Reports, IEEE TCC) and conference (WACV, COMPASS). In addition to doing research, I have the experience of actively participating as a reviewer in the peer-review process of research papers at different confernce (NeurIPS, ICLR, CHI) and journal (ACM JCSS). Also, I have been honored with several research awards covering participation grants, travel grants, etc. Outside of my academic interests, I love to play games, watch TV Shows and anime. I love immersing myself in the virtual worlds of my favorite video games and challenging my friends to epic battles. I am also a big fan of outdoor activities and try to go cycling whenever I get the chance.

I am excited to collaborate on new projects! Feel free to email me to discuss any opportunities. And if you are seeking mentorship where I may be able to provide some guidance based on my expertise, send me a brief email introducing yourself and the area you'd like guidance in.

Fun fact: My Erdős score is 5.
