November 20, 2024
ECE graduate students Sabyasachi Biswas and Mohammad Abdus Shahid Rafi are among 28 Mississippi State graduate students who won prizes for their cutting-edge work during the fall 2024 Graduate Student Research Symposium.
Biswas, a Ph.D. student in the electrical and computer engineering department, won first place in the Engineering category for his poster presentation “HRSpecNet: Deep Learning Based High-Resolution Time Frequency Analysis.”
Rafi, a Ph.D. student in the electrical and computer engineering department, won third place in the Engineering category for his poster presentation “Crop Yield Estimation of Corn and Cotton Utilizing Feature Selection Techniques and Machine Learning Models on Multi-Sensor Fata from UAS.”
More than 100 Mississippi State graduate students participated in the symposium, a bi-annual event allowing students to showcase their faculty-guided research and creative activity.
This fall’s GSRS included students from departments and colleges across campus who participated in poster and oral presentation sessions. Student projects were evaluated by 44 judges, who provided feedback that can be useful in improving current research and preparing for future endeavors.
Research projects were divided into four categories-Agriculture and Life Sciences; Education, Arts and Sciences, and Business; Engineering; and Forest Resources and Veterinary Medicine-and the event featured 29 oral and 12 poster sessions, with 20 moderators and additional volunteers.
Winning students received $150 for first-place, $75 for second-place and $50 for third-place entries.
The event was hosted by the MSU Graduate Student Association in collaboration with the Graduate School. For more information about the GSRS, visit www.grad.msstate.edu/students/graduate-development/graduate-research-symposium.
