Prashanth kumar g

As a Ph.D. Research Scholar at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, I am passionate about advancing the field of computer vision and image processing using optimization and machine learning techniques. My key area of research includes estimating the 3D shape of objects using 2D images. I have been working on this topic for more than eight years, under the guidance of eminent professors and researchers. I have developed and applied novel algorithms and mathematical models to various problems, such as 3D shape estimation, face recognition, object detection, segmentation, and tracking, and published multiple papers in prestigious journals and conferences (ICCV and CVPR). I have also gained proficiency in Python and various frameworks and tools for machine learning and deep learning, such as Caffe, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras, and OpenCV. My core competencies include problem-solving, analytical thinking, creativity, and teamwork. My mission is to contribute to the advancement of science and technology and to the betterment of society through my research and innovation. I aspire to become a leading researcher and educator in the field of computer vision and machine learning and to collaborate with peers and experts from different domains and backgrounds.
