Dr. Vhaduri works in interdisciplinary collaborative teams consisting of researchers from a range of disciplines from academic and industrial research institutions in the US and Europe, including IBM Research. His research focuses on artificial intelligence (applied machine learning, deep learning, data mining, and data analytics) and mobile & wearable computing with a goal to innovate impactful and sustainable secure technological solutions towards empowering people in order to improve their quality of life using their own mobile devices, such as smartphones and wearables, interconnected via the Internet-of-Things (IoT). To achieve this goal his research integrates three major application areas: (1) HEALTHCARE INFORMATICS, (2) BIOMETRIC AUTHENTICATION, and (3) PLACE DISCOVERY. Dr. Vhaduri's work involves analysis of large-scale human study datasets collected through the mobile crowdsensing (MCS) paradigm.
