Personal Information

About me

Hello, my name is Bashar. I am a Senior Software Engineer and co-founder of a tech start-up focused on health, where I blend my expertise in computer science and artificial intelligence. My academic path includes researches such as a Bengali Voice-Controlled AI Robot and Bengali Word Detection from Lip Movements using Mask R-CNN and Generalized Linear Model. I also contribute to the global open-source community, notably to OpenAI's PHP SDK.

I have a strong background in various programming languages and platforms, and my skills in AI and machine learning have been vital to my professional work and personal projects. These skills have significantly contributed to the success of Frontliners Technologies Ltd., improving both the user experience and cost efficiency.

My technical abilities have been showcased in several hackathons and coding competitions, leading to an award-winning paper at the IHCI2020 Conference that highlights my contributions to AI research.

I am passionate about using artificial intelligence and machine learning to solve practical problems and make life better for people, not just in health but in many areas.

I also take care of my health by regularly going to the gym and eating well, though I enjoy the occasional treat. I love reading, especially books on Philosophy, Business, Finance, and Self-help. I also love to travel, which allows me to experience new cultures and gain different perspectives.
