Coursework Projects
UCSD
ECE285 Deep Generative Models
- A data augmentation pipeline in Pytorch to learn to generate Image - Caption pairs. Pipeline consisted of training together a model for caption generation (GPT2), image generation conditioned on the caption (DCGAN), and an Image-to-Caption generation stage.
- Implemented a VAE and GAN on chest X-ray images of patients with pneumonia in Pytorch and reported FID and Inception scores on generated x-ray images.
CSE291 Natural Language Processing
- An encoder-decoder based seq2seq prediction model with attention mechanism for translation on Multi30k dataset in Pytorch. Implemented beam search and nucleus sampling to decode.
- Implemented neural conditional random field (CRFs) for Named Entity Recognition and Constituency parsing tasks in Pytorch and performed a qualitative and quantitative evaluation.
CSE258 Recommender Systems
- Built a hierarchical classification system for jobs based on their titles and descriptions into categories from O*NET taxonomy.
IIITH
- Replicated a 2012 paper - A Contextual Multi-arm Bandit Approach to Personalized News Recommendation - by Yahoo Labs on a dataset from an Indian online news website.
- Indexing, Retrieval and Ranking engine to efficiently search in entire english Wikipedia corpus.
CSE485/6 Cognitive Science
- Simulated and studied Hodgin-Huxley model, phase plane analysis, Passive Cable equation, Leaky IF model and Hopfield networks using the Brian2 simulator.
- Conducted a serial reaction time experiment in Psychtoolbox to study implicit learning of auditory sequences and any presence of motor learning.
CSE431/41 Systems
- A distributed approximation algorithm for minimum spanning trees implemented using C++ OpenMPI library based on Khan et al. 2008.
- A query processing, data definition and data manipulation engine developed in Python with the objective to learn the internals of an SQL DBMS.
- A unix-like shell written in C that executes standard Linux commands by creating and managing new processes and supports redirection, piping and bg processes.
