He has also worked as a faculty member for 2.5 years at MITRC Alwar before joining IIT Kharagpur. His research interests include humanoid robots, soft computing, evolutionary optimization, and their application in multi-criterion optimization, modeling, and machine learning.
Vidyapati Kumar is a Ph.D. Research Scholar in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, specializing in AI-driven Rehabilitation Robotics, Biomechatronics, and Assistive Prosthetic Systems. His research focuses on intelligent prosthetic control, wearable biomedical devices, and advanced sensor fusion techniques, including electromyography (EMG), inertial measurement units (IMU), and force-sensitive resistors (FSR), aimed at enhancing mobility and improving quality of life for individuals with physical impairments.
He holds a Master’s degree in Production Engineering from Jadavpur University and a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the West Bengal University of Technology (WBUT). Prior to his doctoral studies, he served as a GATE Faculty member for Unacademy and worked as a Project Assistant at the Central Institute of Mining and Fuel Research.
Vidyapati Kumar has published multiple papers in high-impact SCI and Scopus-indexed journals. His research interests include prosthetic design, medical artificial intelligence, explainability methods in AI/ML such as SHAP and LIME, optimization, and multi-criteria decision-making. He actively pursues interdisciplinary collaborations in biomedical robotics, wearable assistive devices, and advanced healthcare technologies.
Dr. Dilip Kumar Pratihar is a Professor (HAG Scale) in the Mechanical Engineering Department at IIT Kharagpur, India and former Professor-in-charge of the Centre for Excellence in Robotics. He received his BE (Hons.), M.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering, and Ph.D. from various Indian institutions, as well as post-doctoral study at universities in Japan and Germany. He has received multiple awards, including the University Gold Medal, INSA Teachers' Award, Technologist of the Year Award, and Distinguished Alumnus Award. He has made significant contributions to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its applications in fields such as Industrial Automation, Robotics, Health Care, and Education Technology. He has published several books and hundreds of publications in reputed journals, conferences, and book chapters. He is a regular reviewer for several international journals and a member of the editorial board of several international journals. He has filed patents and received 1 copyright.
