Dr. Shweta Agrawal | Professor · AI/ML · Nvidia DLI Ambassador

About Me

I am an AI Leader and Professor at Indore Institute of Science & Technology, certified Nvidia Deep Learning Institute University Ambassador, Coach and Associate, NET Qualified (2012) and GATE Qualified (2007). With a Ph.D. from DAVV Indore (2015), my research spans machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, and medical image analysis.

Over 19+ years in academia, I have authored 52 research papers (15 SCI-indexed, 7 in Q1 journals), filed 8 patents, published 7 books, guided 4 Ph.D. scholars to completion, and secured over ₹9.5 lakhs in government research grants.

As a Corporate Trainer, I have delivered training programmes on AI, ML, Deep Learning, IoT, and Data Science to industry professionals, faculty, and students across India — through FDPs, workshops, and institutional collaborations with IIT Kanpur, IIITDM Jabalpur, Bennett University, and Kips Publications.

I serve as Associate Editor at Granthaalayah Publications and was formerly Guest Editor at Elsevier's SCI-indexed Sustainable Energy journal (IF 5.353). I regularly review papers for Elsevier, IEEE, Springer, MDPI, Hindawi, and Frontiers.
