Some things I know in life! 😎

Hi Guys. I am a passionate engineer interested in Deep Learning, Computer Vision, and Generative AI. I love to develop deep learning based computer vision algorithms that can have a real imapct in terms of performance, generalizability, and outreach of its solution. Developing the algorithms for surviellance industry for more than five years have given me the “deep” understanding behind DNNs(Pun Intended !) and I will cherish and contine my chase for Applied AI in solving real world problems. My Masters thesis is also based on the Highway Traffic Analytics where I need to develop real-time high performance analytics pipeline mainly optimized for the highway networks.

I also like to write the technnical explainations of the Deep Learning Research Papers. Dont forget to visit on my Medium Page.

Apart from the academica, I like to play cricket 🏏, football ⚽, and badmintion 🏸. I also like to read books related to sci-fi, thriller, cosmology, and astrophysics. Not to forget, I am a huge Real Madrid Fan. HALA MADRID !.

Last but not least, I am a Pokémon freak. I judge a person based on which starter pokemon they choose. I choose Charmender!

Experience

• Deep Learning Enginner at Eagle Eye Networks (April 2024 - Present) - Part time
  
  • Working on the Gun Detection Algorithm from an action localization perspective. Main goal is to optimally localize the gun using the human pose, person detection, action localization.
• Machine Learning Researcher at Lassonde School of Engineering (Sept 2022 - Current) - Full time
  
  • Working on my thesis titled Design and Evaluation of Real-time Daytime/Nighttime Highway Traffic Analytics System which focuses on optmizing computer vision based deep learning pipeline using traditional single-view geometry and image processing in collaboration with Ministry of Transport Ontario (MTO)
  • End goal is to deploy the real-time pipeline developed using Nvidia’s Deepstream pipeline on the highway traffic site. This will in real-time 24x7 giving the analytics of the traffic include vehicle counting/lane-by-lane counting, anomaly detection, speed estimation, etc.

Projects

• Intelligent Traffic Light Control System

  Created a prototype for automating the traffic light timers by doing dynamic timer set-stop transitions at the crossroads for Ahmedabad. Density calculation was done through two different approaches viz Deep Learning: TFNet YOLO Detection and Computer Vision/ Image Processing: Foreground extraction.

• Classification of Gender from Tweets and their Profile Description

  Gender classification from Tweets and their profile description through Natural Language Processing for formatting the tweets and C 4.5 Decision for featurization and Shallow Neural Networks for classification of the gender from the formatted tweets. We reached 84% accuracy on the test set

• Thread Management System

  We developed a thread management library to create, schedule, and kill threads(Operating System). All these operations were done on the kernel level with the use of Linux system calls. The library had similar functionalities as pThread in Linux.

• Saliency Map Generation from Images

  Extraction of saliency maps from two different approaches i.e., Supervised and Semi-Supervised. The supervised approach follows discriminative features integration with superpixel image segmentation followed by finding saliency scores with Random Forest Regression. The semi-Supervised approach follows Autoencoder based approach with an attention layer to find the saliency maps from images.
