ACADEMIC PROJECTS
Autoencoders August 2018 – November 2018
Implemented de-noising autoencoder with different number of nodes in the hidden layer using python.
Developed stacked autoencoder in which the autoencoder was trained layer by layer in unsupervised manner and with different number of hidden layers.
Evaluated the performance of autoencoder for different number of layers, noise and learning rate to observe and understand the effect of the different parameters. Activity Recognition Using Myo Gesture Armband August 2018 – November 2018
Attempted to develop a computing system that can understand human activities and can solve different aspects such as identifying known and unknown activities and segment sequence of activities.
Constructed dataset using the data collected from the armband and applied Principle Component Analysis (PCA) for feature selection.
Precision, recall and F1 scores were calculated and compared using Support Vector Machine(SVM), decision tree and neural networks in matlab.
Intelligent Pacman Project August 2018 – November 2018
Implemented particle filtering, alpha-beta minimax, expectimax and search algorithms like DFS, BFS and A*.
Applied reinforcement learning algorithms like value iteration and Q-learning to train the pacman agent for better performance.
BookOnn August 2017 – November 2017
Led the team to design and develop a website for hotel booking, bus booking, and event booking.
Used HTML, CSS, and bootstrap for developing the website.
Worked on deciding the flow of the project to improve the team efficiency and decrease the development time.
