Efficient & Trustworthy AI, Biometrics, Cybersecurity, Edge AI

I develop efficient and robust deep learning systems that bridge state-of-the-art AI performance with real-world deployment constraints. Recent projects include CRFSEG (97.17% fingerprint matching accuracy) and EdgeLite (92.37% accuracy on edge devices with 13% parameter reduction).

Efficient & Trustworthy AI, built for real-world deployment.

My research focuses broadly on developing algorithms for efficient and scalable machine learning systems. I am particularly interested in hardware-friendly deep learning algorithms and its applications in biometrics, vision, language, and speech using the edge computing paradigm. My current work focuses on (i) resource-aware deep learning and edge AI for computer vision, (ii) trustworthy AI for biometrics and cybersecurity with interpretability, and (iii) adapting foundation models (LLMs) for resource-constrained settings.

About

Md Golam Sarwar Murshed is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science in the Resch School of Engineering at the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay (UWGB), where he founded and directs the Green Bay AI Lab (GBAI Lab). He earned his M.S. and Ph.D. from Clarkson University, NY, with research spanning efficient, robust, and explainable deep learning for real-world deployment across biometrics, computer vision, robotics, and cybersecurity. His work includes CRFSEG (Clarkson Rotated Fingerprint Segmentation), a deep learning system for accurately localizing and classifying rotated slap fingerprints (97.17% fingerprint matching accuracy), as well as EdgeLite, which achieves 92.37% accuracy on edge devices with a 13% parameter reduction. He has also introduced the Oriented Regional Proposal Network (O-RPN) to improve high-precision detection of oriented objects. His research has accumulated 725+ citations (as of Jan 2026) and has been supported by organizations including NSF-CITeR, Verizon, Badger Technologies, and WiSys. Before joining UWGB, he spent five years as a Lead Software Engineer at Samsung R&D, bringing strong industry experience in building scalable software systems that informs his focus on deployable, trustworthy AI.
