Syed Md. Ahnaf Hasan

Machine Learning Researcher

I am a Research Assistant at the AI & ML Wing lab of the Center for Computational & Data Sciences (CCDS), Independent University, Bangladesh (IUB), where I am supervised by Dr. AKM Mahbubur Rahman. I have also collaborated with and received mentorship from Dr. Sajib Mistry (Associate Professor, Curtin University, Australia). My research interests include computer vision, federated learning, test-time adaptation of vision and vision-language models, multimodal learning, and agentic AI.

I am completing an M.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering at BRAC University. I received my B.Sc. in Electrical, Electronic and Communication Engineering from the Military Institute of Science and Technology (MIST), where I later served as a Lecturer in the same department.

I am actively seeking Ph.D. opportunities.
