Ext: 461
I received the B.S. and M.S. degree in Electronic Engineering from International Islamic University, Islamabad, Pakistan, in 2007 and 2009, respectively. Formerly, I was working as Research Assistant and Research Associate at Advanced Robotic Lab, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I obtained my Ph. D degree in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics from Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology, University of Malaya, Malaysia. After obtaining my doctoral degree, I worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow from at Advanced Robotics Lab, University of Malaya, Malaysia. Currently I am an Assistant Professor at Faculty of Information Technology, University of Central Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. My research Interest includes, Machine Learning, Incremental Online Learning, Computational Intelligence, and Cognitive Robotics.
