Biography

Neetu Singh is a dedicated educator and researcher with over 17 years of academic and corporate training experience, with extensive research in areas like Mining Software Repositories, Recommender Systems, and Social Media Analytics. She shares a strong passion for cutting-edge research, having published work in reputed international Journals, and conferences and contributed to book chapters. She has actively organized and attended numerous National and International conferences and guided approximately 60+ postgraduate and graduate dissertation projects. In addition, she has collaborated with various universities across India, serving as an expert in the CS/IT domain.

Currently pursuing her Ph.D. at JIIT, Noida, her research interests span Mining Software Repositories, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Mining, Power BI, and Web Development.

As an educator, she is committed to inspire students to cultivate critical thinking and a passion for learning, while actively leading research and development efforts in advanced technologies.

Research Highlights

My research work centers on the Bug Cold Start Problem (BCSP) with a focus on reinforcement learning-based solutions. Over the course of my Ph.D., I have explored and developed several approaches including MABTriage, CMABTriage, Enhanced CMAB_Triage, and Optimized CMAB_Triage. These approaches have been designed and evaluated to address challenges in BCSP and contribute toward more effective bug triaging frameworks. The work has resulted in multiple publications in reputed journals and international conferences, along with a book chapter contribution. In addition, I have carried out a systematic literature review to establish a comprehensive understanding of existing solutions in the area. My research poster on smart triaging using reinforcement learning for BCSP was awarded first prize at Research and Innovation Day (2025). Overall, my research highlights reflect a consistent focus on advancing reinforcement learning applications in software engineering with specific emphasis on BCSP.
