Who am I?
I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Spatial Information Science and Engineering at the School of Computing and Information Science, University of Maine (UMaine). In addition to my study, I am working with Dr. Torsten Hahmann as a graduate research assistant at the Spatial Knowledge and Artificial Intelligence (SKAI) Lab. My research focuses on developing an ontology-guided named entity recognition (NER) model for the cellulose materials, which aims to contribute to the growth of a small hand-curated cellulose ontology. Prior to starting school at UMaine, I earned a B.S. in Computer Science and Engineering and an M.S. in Computer Science from American International University - Bangladesh (AIUB).
