He was promoted to Associate Professor in 1995 and was promoted to Professor in 2003. His research areas include image and video analysis, formulation of new image descriptors for image analysis, fast computation of orthogonal moments, analysis of EEG signals, and data modeling of substance concentration acquired from non-invasive methods. His contributions can be seen in the form of journal publications, conference proceedings, chapters in books and an international patent to predict blood glucose levels using non-parametric model. He has successfully supervised to completion 17 Ph.D students and 13 students in M.Eng.Sc (Masters by research). He is currently a Senior IEEE member and also a member of the Signal Processing Society.
