I am a Computer Science PhD Researcher under Dr. Frank Ferarro at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). My research combines Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Computer Vision (CV).
My primary research focuses on multimodal event reasoning, understanding, and generation. My previous work, a hierarchical variational autoencoder for event representation learning, has applications in text summarization, question answering, and counterfactual reasoning (Published in *SEM 2023, ACL).
Actively looking for Research Collaboration in Natural Language Processing or Multimodal (Language + Vision) Work. I am greatly enthusiastic about participating in shared tasks. Please contact me if you want to collaborate.
I have a strong background in ML programming, including PyTorch, 🤗 HuggingFace, NLTK, Spacy, Matplotlib, Seaborn, and more. I’ve excelled in machine learning competitions (Kaggle top-70 🥉) and coding competitions (ACM ICPC 8th out of 300+ teams) and more. I was the founder of UniShopr, a cross-border e-commerce for my home country (Bangladesh).

Feb 17, 2024 | Published a chat-bot with GPT4Vision using OPENAI API for our language understanding lab. As vision support is still not available in official playground, this demo will help our lab members to explore the vision capability of GPT4. Anyone can use the code to deploy their own vision enabled chat-bot by changing the API key. |
