I am a researcher in Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence, specializing in facial recognition and person re-identification systems.

My research focuses on developing robust algorithms for facial recognition, age transfer modeling, and person re-identification using various deep learning approaches.

I've worked on several projects implementing GANs for super-resolution, facial feature extraction, and cross-input neighborhood difference techniques to enhance recognition accuracy across different scenarios.
