About Me
Hello đŸ‘‹ I completed my PhD from POTIOC Team, INRIA Bordeaux, France under the supervision of Prof. Martin Hachet. Before that, I received my MS (By Research) from IIT Kharagpur, India and Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) from West Bengal University of Technology, India.
My area of research interest is Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), particularly the input and interaction techniques.
