I am Sufian, a researcher (Senior Fellowship) at the National Research Council of Italy - Institute of Applied Sciences and Intelligent Systems (CNR-ISASI). Since 2024, I have been contributing to the national consortium project Future Artificial Intelligence Research (FAIR, 2023–2025), contributing to Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition, and Machine Learning for multimodal data analysis in pervasive solutions in the lens of responsible and trustworthy AI systems.
I have over 14 years of academic experience, including nine years as an Assistant Professor at the University of Gour Banga, India, where I also served as Head of the Department of Computer Science and led curriculum development initiatives. I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Visva-Bharati, Santiniketan, India.
My research lies at the intersection of Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and Generative AI, with applications in Media Forensics, Biometrics, and Healthcare. My work emphasizes AI Fairness, Bias Mitigation and Explainability, aiming to develop equitable and transparent AI systems.
I have authored 50+ peer-reviewed publications in venues such as Pattern Recognition, Knowledge-Based Systems, IEEE Access, ICCV, and ECCV, accumulating 2,700+ citations in Google Scholar and 1,600+ citations in Scopus. I am a Senior Member of IEEE and a Lifetime Member of the Computer Society of India.
