Data Scientist Intern

Sep 2023 - Dec 2023

Twin Cities Innovation Alliance

I designed A/B tests using SQL and statistical modeling to evaluate website optimization. ​These tests involved employing SQL and statistical modeling to analyze data and assess the impact of changes made during a website optimization project.

I worked on enhancing the client's recommendation engine. This involved utilizing a combination of collaborative filtering, content-based filtering, and deep learning models. By leveraging user preference and behavior data, we were able to achieve a remarkable 20% increase in user engagement.

Skills - Statistical Modeling, A/B testing, SQL, and Data Science pipeline

Data Engineer

May 2021 - Aug 2022

Moonplexus Pvt. Ltd.

I deployed machine learning models for skin lesion classification using Tensorflow and CNN for Virtusa Technologies, USA. I also leveraged AWS EC2 for hosting the web application, and Amazon RDS for database management. I implemented the ETL to gather images, ensuring data integrity and optimizing data storage for efficient retrieval and analysis. 

Skills - Tensorflow, Neural Networks, Node.js, AWS, Leadership, and Team Management 

Machine Learning Intern

Oct 2020 - Apr 2021

Indian Institute of Technology

I conducted research on developing incremental and decremental versions of the DBSCAN and MBSCAN algorithms to analyze distance-based outlier mining. I used Python and C++ to improve the computational speed by 30% and precision by 20% in clustering algorithms. The algorithm was tested in a fintech application with over 1 million users, for customer segmentation and portfolio optimization.

Skills - Python, C++, Data Analysis, Clustering and Machine Learning

Undergraduate Researcher

Dec 2019 - Oct 2020

MIT World Peace University

I conducted machine learning research to investigate the correlation between BMI and cardiovascular disease. I identified BMI as a key feature and achieved 71% accuracy, which outperformed the previous best performance by a neural network model by 10.9%.

I also utilized YOLOv4 to design an object and obstacle detection model, creating an RCOIS and securing an Indian patent. Additionally, I engineered smart glasses with AR technology, implementing depth perception through an object detection algorithm (YOLOv3) to assist individuals with monocular vision, and filed an Indian patent.

During this time I worked with
1. Prof. Bharati Dixit (​Head of Computer Engineering Department)
2. Prof. Shamla Mantri(Professor CSE))

Skills - ​Computer Vision, Deep Learning, YOLO, and Machine Learning
