👋🏼 Hello there, I’m Rawhatur!

I am a final-year M.Sc. student in Computer Science and Engineering at Brac University, Dhaka, Bangladesh, and a full-time Graduate Research Assistant (GRA). My research focuses on developing deep learning models for real-time image and video analysis, with recent efforts directed at multimodal AI, particularly integrating visual features with textual descriptions to improve tasks like image captioning and visual question answering.

I have published work in Q1 journals and presented at numerous conferences. Previously, as a Software Engineer Trainee at Medina Tech Ltd., I contributed to developing machine learning models for agriculture and location-based data analysis.

Outside of research, I have worked on several AI projects, including RAG, LLM, and OCR, driven by personal interest and competition, pushing the boundaries of deep learning and computer vision. In my personal time, I enjoy swimming, running, and reading, maintaining a balance between intellectual rigor and personal growth.
