I am Dr. K. Venkateswara Reddy, currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning at SR University, India. I received my Ph.D. in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering from the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Warangal in 2022. I have six years of teaching and research experience and have published 34 papers in international journals.

My primary research interests focus on machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence applications in manufacturing, and data-driven process optimization. I am particularly interested in developing intelligent models for predicting material properties, optimizing manufacturing parameters, detecting defects, and understanding the relationships between processing conditions, microstructure, and material performance. I aim to integrate machine learning and deep learning techniques with advanced manufacturing technologies, including additive manufacturing, wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM), friction stir processing (FSP), and friction stir welding (FSW). My interdisciplinary research background in materials engineering and artificial intelligence enables me to explore practical AI-driven solutions for smart manufacturing, quality control, predictive modelling, and non-destructive testing.

My teaching interests include machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence, and their engineering applications. I am committed to providing practical, application-oriented education through real-world examples, programming exercises, and interdisciplinary projects. My long-term goal is to advance AI-enabled smart manufacturing through innovative research, collaborative projects, and externally funded research initiatives while contributing to student mentoring, academic excellence, and the development of intelligent, sustainable manufacturing systems.
