Profile

Bridging Data &
Clinical Impact

Final-year CSE undergraduate at Daffodil International University, supervised by Dr. Md. Ali Hossain, Director of the NanoBio Technology Center.

My thesis addresses a real crisis — Bangladesh has fewer than 500 cardiologists for 170 million people. I built a trimodal deep learning system for CVD diagnosis from smartphone photos of paper ECGs, validated cross-nationally.

First AI/ML analysis of NASA OSD-970 — revealing 12.21-fold Ucp1 upregulation in female astronaut tissue after 37 days aboard the ISS.

Multimodal CVD Diagnosis from Smartphone-Captured Paper ECGs

Trimodal late fusion — ConvNeXt-Small CNN + XGBoost-ECG + XGBoost-Clinical — for five-class multi-label CVD classification. Original dataset of 1,191 patients at Enam Medical College, Dhaka. First multimodal smartphone-ECG dataset from Bangladesh. Cross-nationally validated without retraining (Pakistan CPEIC + NHFB Bangladesh).

First AI/ML Analysis of NASA OSD-970 — ISS Microgravity Thermogenesis

First published ML re-analysis of NASA OSDR dataset OSD-970 (RR-1 ISS mission). RT-qPCR data, 89 genes, 16 female C57BL/6J mice, 37 days microgravity. Revealed 12.21-fold Ucp1 upregulation in WAT. Identified the Angpt2–Jun–Irs2–Klf2 axis via SHAP. Relevant to female astronaut health and obesity research.
