PROJECTS
Malware Detection System using Deep Learning Algorithms
Doing Literature Survey on Malware Detection System using Deep Learning Algorithms.
Analyzed various .pcap files using Wireshark.
Wrote python script to extract HTTP and SIP features using Tshark commands.
Normal and Anomalous Traffic Flow Pattern Analysis for Organizational Networks
Determined the typical characteristics seen in organizational network traffic.
Used Scapy to decode the packets and python script to calculate flow features.
Used simple flow analysis to determine whether the dataset is malicious or not.
Analyzing Members’ Participation Trent in the #edchat Online Community using R
Used SQL queries to analyze #Edchat database to indication participation of subscribers, frequency of sign up etc.
Comparison of L1, L2 and Huber Norm on Dataset with Corrupted Data (Group Project)
Trained neural network using L1, L2 and Huber norms on corrupted housing dataset.
Showed that Huber norm is the best for dataset with highly varying data based on error values.
LTE-U Simulation
Simulated LTE on NS3 and analyzed its performance.
Android Based Messenger
Developed an android messenger to send message from one device to another instantly.
