Zulqarnain Khan
Research Scientist, EAI
Zulqarnain Khan is a research scientist with the Institute for Experiential AI (EAI) based at the Roux Institute. Khan completed his bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering at National University of Science and Technology in Pakistan and master’s in Electrical Engineering as a Fulbright Scholar at Prof. Octavia Camps’ Robust Systems Lab at Northeastern University. Continuing at Northeastern, he finished his PhD in Electrical Engineering at the Machine Learning Lab led by Prof. Jennifer Dy.
During his PhD, Khan focused on applying and building interpretable machine learning models for neuroscience and psychophysiology in addition to pursuing theoretical work on explanation methods. His research has been published in major ML, Neuroscience and Psychology venues including NeurIPS, Psychophysiology, Neuroinformatics and Scientific Reports. Khan’s research interests at the institute continue along the same lines to develop machine learning models for practical problems, ideally in healthcare, in close collaboration with domain experts, and to improve interpretability of existing machine learning models.
