Profile

I am pursuing a double Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee, and the University of Groningen, Netherlands. My research revolves around understanding depression by analyzing EEG and fMRI data using machine/deep learning. My research interests include Artificial Intelligence and major depressive disorder. I am also interested in understanding the cognitive states of the human brain by analyzing the EEG signals using deep learning to facilitate not only the development of robust Brain-Computer Interfaces but also to gain insights into how the brain works.

Project
