His broader research interests include Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, LLMs, Transformers, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Data Analysis, and efficient AI for real-world applications.

S.M Kifayat Kabir is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Boise State University. He joined the Low-Power Integrated Circuits and Embedded Systems Laboratory (LPiNS-Lab) and began his Ph.D. in Fall 2025. His research focuses on energy-efficient processor design and PIM-HBM architectures. He received his B.Sc. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology, Bangladesh, in June 2022. Before starting his Ph.D., he worked in the industry for three years as a Memory and Custom IP Design Engineer. His current research explores energy-efficient shifter-based processing elements (PEs) for high memory- and compute-bound applications, such as artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. His interests outside the lab include soccer, traveling, and hiking.
