About Me

Current Status: CS Graduate (BRAC University) · Actively seeking Ph.D. positions & Graduate Research Opportunities abroad in Advanced Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning.

Biography & Career Objective

I am S. M. Mohiuddin Khan Shiam, a Computer Science graduate with strong academic grounding in software systems, artificial intelligence, and peer-reviewed machine learning research. My long-term goal is to pursue a Ph.D. abroad in advanced artificial intelligence, focusing on computationally efficient architectures, explainable intelligence, and real-time edge vision.

My research spans Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, Explainable AI (XAI), High-Frequency Time-Series Forecasting, Quantum Machine Learning (QML), and Medical Image Diagnostics. I have authored peer-reviewed research published in international Q1 journals (Elsevier Array), submitted manuscripts to Scientific Reports (Nature Portfolio), and engineered ultra-compact neural models like Nano3D (a 486K-parameter 3D-CNN operating at 7.19 ms edge latency).

Beyond academic research, I am a passionate open-source contributor across 11+ global open-source organizations and 17+ mission-critical repositories—including the Microsoft developer ecosystem (VS Code, Windows Terminal, WSL, AutoGen), foundational ML libraries (scikit-learn, Keras, Ultralytics, OpenVINO), and distributed cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes, Apache Airflow, Flux CD).
