👋 Hello , 안녕하세요 , السلام علیکم

I am Wajahat Ali Khan, born and raised in Peshawar. I did my B.Sc in Electrical Engineering (Communication) from UET Peshawar, Pakistan and also did my initial internships and training at different kind of research centers there like NCAI (National Center of Artificial Intelligence) and NCCS (National Center of Cyber Security). Then I did my MS in AI at Kyung Hee University, South Korea and did research in PerCV Lab under the supervision of Professor Lee Seungkyu.

Currently I work at a startup.

I am a student member of Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and a member of Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC).

My research interests include Deep Learning, Multimodal Learning (CV & NLP) and Medical Imaging.
