Deepak Kumar

PhD. candidate at University of Massachussets, Dartmouth

I am doctoral candidate in Engineering and Applied science program with a concentration in Computer and Information sciences at University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. I have completed my master’s in data science from University of Massachusetts Dartmouth and my bachelor’s in computer science from SZABIST (Karachi, Pakistan).

My research focuses on computer vision, transfer learning, adversarial learning and knowledge distillation. I'm currently investigating a novel way to attack multi-modality, multi-view action recognition systems, as well as proposing a defense mechanism to protect those models from various adversarial attacks.

Currently, I am a Graduate Research Assistant at Machine Intelligence and Data Analytics (MIND) Lab at University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth. My advisor is Dr. Ming Shao .
