Hi! I am Sultan!

I am a Ph.D. student at The Pennsylvania State University, currently serving as a Graduate Teaching Student in the Computer Science and Engineering department, and looking for PhD supervisor.

As a graduate researcher, I would like to utilize and advance my prior knowledge of signal processing techniques and applied machine learning algorithms. I would also love to collaborate with researchers in order to improve my skills in multi-disciplinary domains to contribute to the field of science.
