Past Work

Projects

Following are some of my projects

Attention Span Detection (Computer Vision)

A computer vision solution for detecting attention span in an online session. It utilizes facial keypoints for analyzing attention metrics such as yawning, nodding, interaction with the instructor and head orientation and displays student's attention via a mobile application.

Reddit Flair Detection (NLP & Data Science)

Developed an end-to-end flair detection system for Reddit posts by created a reddit dataset, exploring various text-classification methods ranging from naive bayes to BERT and deploying the best performing model on a Django-based website

Torchblaze (Machine Learning)

TorchBlaze is a pip-installable command line tool and Python package, that provides a suite of functionalities to perform end-to-end ML using PyTorch. TorchBlaze was designed to fast-track things when it comes to deploying ML models online, thus allowing the developer to focus on what matters the most— Ensuring that their models give a high inference accuracy.

Chamber of Secrets (Web Development)

A web solution for a secure digital locker system internally utilizing pre-existing services such as Google Drive and Dropbox. It provides storage security using two-level encryption followed by file splitting.Implemented using Django REST framework, OAuth, ReactJS, and SQLite.
