The focus of Systems and Software Lab (SSL) is on the experimental design, implementation, and evaluation of systems, software, and technologies that support a wide range of emerging applications. The group brings together Human–Computer Interaction, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing to develop intelligent, accessible, and human-centered technologies. Our research spans sensor-based activity recognition, eye and gaze tracking, human intention and attention detection, gesture-based intelligent interactions, hand and body gesture recognition, and assistive technologies. Building on these foundations, we actively explore Human–AI collaboration, human-centered AI for natural language processing and applications, intelligent and agent-based interactions, Bangla and low-resource language technologies, Bangla sign language recognition and analysis, and speech emotion recognition. We also investigate mental health and digital well-being through applications such as depression detection, mental-health conversation analysis, and topic classification in Bangla empathetic conversations.

The group actively participates in software engineering research, social network analysis and mining, and emerging areas of intelligent systems. Our previous work includes software repository mining to improve software reusability, understanding code usage and reuse patterns, and mining social networks for recommendation systems. More recently, our research has expanded into large language models, generative AI, foundations of general-purpose intelligent systems, mathematical and multimodal reasoning, multi-agent systems, retrieval-augmented generation, and conversational AI. Through dataset development, model design, system implementation, and empirical evaluation, we aim to advance intelligent systems and develop reliable, accessible, and effective technologies that address real-world challenges.
