I'm a Machine learning enthusiast, specializing in Computer Vision, which stems from my innate love for photography, and the editing tools like Adobe Photoshop. I'm currently doing my Master's Thesis under Prof. Rob Fergus on Video-based Person Re-id task.

Work Experience


Deep Learning Research (Video Persod Re-id), Clarifai
(Guide-Dr. Michael Gormish)

  • Implemented and mixed various techniques, resulting in 82.1% mAP accuracy where previous reported SOTA is 80.8% on MARS dataset for video-based Person Re-id task, accompanied by a detailed experimental study of model
  • Built the Video back-end infrastructure for loading and training videos

Deep Learning Research (VAE-GAN for Audio), Rice University
(Guide-Prof. Anshumali Srivastava)

  • Applied the VAE-GAN on audio spectrogram per frame to reconstruct phonemes of vocal recordings
  • Compared English trained model with French counterpart to visualize phonetic differences, using T-SNE plots
  • Attended High Performance Computing (HPC) BootCamp for parallel programming and working on GPUs
