Background

I am a PGTA and a PhD student in the Scalable Computing Group at the School of Computing, Newcastle University. My academic journey started at National Textile University, where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. Following this, I earned my MSc in Data science (with Distinction) from Northumbria University, Newcastle in 2022.

 

Currently, my research focuses on privacy-preserving and explainable generative models for sustainable water management. In particular, I am investigating the use of conditional generative models for supporting tasks like disaggregation while addressing key challenges in data sparsity, granularity, and compliance with data protection regulations. I am also exploring how Explainable AI (XAI) techniques can improve model transparency and user trust.
