[DataLAB | AI/XAI & ML : Cybersecurity]
This DataLab is mainly a global-platform for conducting Research in support of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0 or 4IR), specifically in the broad areas of Data/AI-Driven Cybersecurity and Threat Intelligence, Machine/Deep Learning, Data Science & Behavioral Analytics, Digital Twin, Smart Cities and Critical Infrastructure Security for the purpose of solving real-world problems. We aim to assist individuals and the community in maximizing the value of DATA and lead the world towards a data-driven automated and intelligent future. Our research has been published in TOP-ranked International Journals (Q1) and Conferences (A*/A) with reputed scientific publishers like Elsevier, Springer Nature, IEEE, ACM, Oxford University Press etc., and the team of DataLAB researchers is led by Iqbal H. Sarker, PhD .
We feel that collaboration is one of the most important aspects of data-powered future, hence we would like to concentrate on Academia-Industry collaboration to meet the requirements of on-going technological revolution. Thus, the DataLAB is available to all interested students (Ph.D., Masters, as well as Potential Undergraduates), academics, industry professionals, policymakers, and anyone else with an interest in our focused areas towards intelligent Services & Security. Through the exchange of knowledge and ideas, we are always open to new collaborations Nationally and Internationally.
Overall, "Sarker DataLAB" is open for Interested All and major activites are Research Excellence, Student Supervision & World Wide Collaboration.
