Suhita Ghosh

Scientific Assistant And PhD Student
Magdeburg

Summary

I am a researcher at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg, where I work on diverse cutting-edge projects leveraging artificial intelligence. I have over seven years of experience in information technology, including two years in big data and five years in Java/J2EE frameworks. I also received the prestigious DAAD award in 2019. My current research focuses on developing novel methods for speaker anonymization while preserving emotional expressiveness, which addresses the challenges of data protection and facilitating a natural human-computer interaction. Prior to this, I worked on improving the quality of low-dose and sparse-sampled interventional CT reconstructions using perceptual loss-guided deep learning methods. I am passionate about applying my skills and knowledge to create innovative solutions that benefit society and advance science.
