Zulfiqar Ahmad Khan
I am a fresh PhD graduate specialized in time series data analysis, computer vision, and IoT programming. I worked as the Coordinator of the Intelligent Media Laboratory (IMLab), where I led a research group of 8 members and supervised diverse projects. My research focuses on time-series forecasting for smart grid management using statistical, machine learning, and hybrid deep learning models. In computer vision, I have worked on fire detection, object detection, anomaly recognition, etc., using advanced deep learning techniques. I have also implemented active, incremental, and federated learning for adaptive, scalable solutions, and employ Explainable AI (XAI) for model interpretability
