Bio
I completed a Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering
from the National University of Sciences & Technology (NUST) in 2005.
In 2009 I received an MSc in Vision and Robotics (VIBOT), a joint Masters program in three European universities:
Heriot-Watt University, University of Girona
and University of Burgundy. I worked for four months (May - August 2010)
at Medicsight PLC in London as Scientific
R&D Intern on the analysis of haustral folds
(part of human colon anatomy) imaged with Computed Tomography (CT). Since
September 2010, I have been working at Queen Mary University of London
under the supervision of Prof. Andrea Cavallaro first as a Research
Assistant (September to December 2010) and then as a Research Student
(January 2011 to date). My research interests include multi-camera
environment learning, performance evaluation of video tracking and shape
analysis.

Mundus Grant, European Commission, for PhD studies in Interactive and
Cognitive Environments (ICE)
-Erasmus Mundus Scholarship, European Commission, for MSc in Vision and
