Research Interest

I'm doing research in preference aggregation and fair decision-making, specifically on designing fairer voting rules. I have been exploring ML and RL-based techniques to design economic mechanisms. Other broad interests include natural language processing, interpretable machine learning and multi-agent reinforcement learning.

In the past, I've fancied myself a writer on topics varying from mathematical problem solving to comicbook movies. Most of these are written in my native language, Bangla, and can be found in the following links.

• Medium. Medium blog where I plan to write content about my research in Bangla.
  
• Blog. Early blog posts. Has both Bangla and English content, the recent posts are mostly in English.
  
• Olympiad Book. A math olympiad problem solving textbook in Bangla that I co-wrote and edited.
