WORK EXPERIENCE

Software Developer –– Mappedin 09/2019 – 12/2019

CycleGAN network for room classification

Trained the neural network to convert black and white floorplan to color coded floorplan based on the room types

Generated paired dataset based on name of the venues

Normalized and balanced dataset for improved accuracy PDF extraction tool

Built a tool that can extract vector data, embedded images, and text from both vector and raster PDFs

Converted the tool into pip installable library for ease of use PROJECT EXPERIENCE

Software Developer - Image Classification (Python, TensorFlow) Dog Breed Classification https://github.com/nickren1234/Dog-Breed-Classification o Built a convolutional neural network to classify 120 dog breeds Traffic Sign Classification https://github.com/nickren1234/Traffic-Sign-Classification o Trained a fully connected feed forward neural network on Tensorflow to classify the traffic signs (~1,000 images), achieving 86% accuracy Image Recoloring

o Performed feature engineering by rescaling the image and recolouring greyscale images (~20,000 images)

o Used data generator to sample and balance datasets; generalized models EDUCATION
