Experience

Working on applying AI and ML to improve healthcare.

• Used deep learning to estimate heart ejection fraction from ECG signals
• Trained a foundation model for GI endoscopy images using federated learning
• Used knockoff framework for feature selection in manufacturing

Ideated and implemented AI solutions to meet project requirements.

• Improved OCR and object detection in PDFs containing scanned schematic diagrams
• Conducted research on optimization algorithms to minimize lockdown in German counties due to the pandemic, and used AI models to replicate a mathematical model to reduce computation time

Conducted research to assist medical personnel in low-income countries like Nepal.

• Used UNET architecture for segmentation of fetal head to measure fetal head circumference in the HC18 dataset
• Used a classification algorithm to detect cancer in ultrasound images of breasts
• Worked on the exploration of semi-supervised techniques and attention across multiple data points to capture complex relationships between data points

Developed AI applications to adhere to designs that support business requirements by researching and developing machine learning models.

• Led a team in an intelligent surgery project to develop and deploy an ML pipeline to create 3D bones from multiple views of 2D X-ray images
• Used pseudolabelling to use a large number of unannotated data to track student status in FuseClassroom, an online learning management system
• Used Elasticsearch to reduce the search space in text comparisons to detect plagiarism between assignments within a class in FuseClassroom

• Designed and developed a discussion forum as part of a Learning Management System using Django.
• Worked on the development of the database, REST APIs, and front-end for the discussion forum

• Worked on data collection, pre-processing, and development of a model (LSTM) for forecasting weather parameters in Kathmandu Valley, and developed a web-app for data visualization of current weather and pollution statistics and to display predicted weather parameters.
