Biography

Achintya Kr. Sarkar received the B.Tech. in Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering, M. Tech. (with gold medal) in Instrumentation and Control Engineering degrees from the University of Kalyani, India, in 2003, and Punjab Technical University, India, in 2006, respectively, and a Ph.D. degree from IIT Madras, Chennai, India, in 2011. From 2011 to 2017, he was working as a postdoctoral research fellow in several laboratories in abroad: Laboratoire Informatique d’Avignon, France, LIMSI-CNRS, Paris, France, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University College Cork, Ireland, and the Department of Electronic Systems, Aalborg University, Denmark. During the postdoc, he was working on the various prestigious research and innovation projects: European Horizon 2020 (OCTAVE) – developed scalable trusted biometric authentication service using voice, European research and development program (Quaero) and Neoprism (Ireland) – pattern recognition for continuous neurological monitoring in Neonates. From 2018 -May, 2020, he was working as a professor in the School of Electronics Engineering, VIT-AP University, India.
His research interests include speech signal processing, biomedical signal processing, speaker recognition, spoofing countermeasure, seizure detection and application of machine learning in the above areas.
