Dr. Thakur's research at the intersections of Big Data, Data Analysis, Human-Computer Interaction, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing has focused on addressing the needs of the constantly increasing aging population of the world through the development of personalized, intelligent, assistive, adaptive, and pervasive technologies to contribute towards healthy aging, independent living, and improved quality of life of the elderly in the future of Smart Homes. His research has led to the development of various novel technologies related to human activity recognition, user-specific activity recommendation, affect recognition during human behavior, indoor location detection, fall detection, detection of indoor navigational hazards, and detection of cognitive impairment from user interactions.
In addition to the above, he has also worked on mining, analyzing, and interpreting multimodal components of conversations on social media platforms and trends of web behavior related to virus outbreaks such as COVID-19 and MPox. His recent works in these areas have focused on the investigation of the trends in Google Searches about Disease X on a global scale, analysis of Tweets about exoskeletons, the identification and analysis of distinct themes and topics of conversations on Twitter in the context of MPox, performing gender-specific sentiment analysis, subjectivity analysis, and toxicity analysis of Tweets about online learning during COVID-19, and the identification of the sentiments and evolution of the same in Tweets where individuals self-reported Long COVID
Dr. Thakur has co-authored 52 peer-reviewed publications (20 Journal Articles (J), 30 Conference Papers, and 2 Invited Book Chapters) in these fields.
