His research vision is to investigate how the information retrieval paradigm will be transformed as agents increasingly search for, retrieve, and process information. His current research focuses on developing agentic retrieval methods for complex real-world problems, such as disaster detection. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Passau, where his research focused on developing neural network architectures for fraud detection. His broader research interests include natural language processing, social media \u00a0analysis, and LLM agent behaviour.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true},"class_list":["post-22162","team","type-team","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Kanishka Ghosh Dastidar | IT:U<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Kanishka Ghosh Dastidar at IT:U Interdisciplinary Transformation University Austria in Linz.
