Bio

Dr. Mohammad Muntasir Rahman is a postdoc in the Taebi Lab specializing in computer vision, machine learning, and data analysis. He earned his Ph.D. in Computer Applied Technology from the School of Engineering Sciences at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS), Beijing, under the CAS-TWAS President’s Fellowship program. His doctoral research on RGB-D object detection and recognition yielded a patent, multiple SCI journal publications, and the 2019 UCAS Excellent International Graduate Award. Prior to joining the lab, Dr. Rahman served as an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Islamic University, Bangladesh.
