Projects

  • Analyzing real time twitter data

    -

    Set up a streaming pipeline to analyze trending hashtags using Apache Spark, AWS and Twitters Streaming API.

  • ServiceOntario Wait Times

    -

    Analyzed ServiceOntario wait times for various queries from 2016-2020. The dataset updates quarterly so there may be new information added to the dataset later on.

  • Emoto

    -

    Designed an android diary application to analyze emotions so people can practice better self care. Evaluated models like LSTM, Google BERT and VADER to see which one performs better.

    Check out the app in play store which is called emoto: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=emoto_setup.example.recommender_app&hl=en_CA

  • Fake Job Postings

    -

    Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, unemployment level is on the rise. However, even during these troubling times, the amount of fake job postings have also increased in Canada and in North America as a whole. This project aims to create a classification model to help users identify fraudulent job postings.

  • SentiAI

    -

    Did a side project with selvans to make a journal based sentiment analysis, where the user can jot down what they are feeling. The model which is deployed on Amazon EC2 computes if it is a positive or negative response and is relayed back to the user.

  • A Hybrid Unsupervised Classification Technique for Automatic Brain MRI Tumor Recognition

    -

    Worked on creating an automated classification technique to automatically distinguish gliomas and normal brain images without the need of a human operator.

    See project

  • Classification of Cyber Attacks in Intrusion Detection Systems

    -

    Implemented various machine learning algorithms ( random forest, kmeans, adaboost, feedforward neural network and more) to compare with deep learning models. This will allow us to assess their accuracy in identification of security threats.

  • Mobile Spam Filtering using a Neural Network

    -

    Implemented a neural network using a dataset to filter out spam messages on mobile devices. Also, a comparison was made between other classifiers to determine how a simple neural network ranks against others.

  • Chemistry lab in Virtual Reality (VR)

    -

    Made a chemistry lab in VR as part of my senior design project. The lab was made to showcase the hazards of what can happen in a chemistry lab and to help people who do not have a lab, to do experiments with ease.

  • Smart room control

    -

    Worked on creating a room control prototype using Arduino, wifi module (esp8266), humidity and temperature sensors. If the humidity or temperature has increased a certain amount that information is relayed to the LEDs which causes them to light up.

  • Automated Waste Management System (AWMS)

    -

    Designed an AWMS which can detect when the waste is full in a dumpster. This allows the waste collector to only come if there is sufficient waste to be collected. Thus, reduces the carbon footprint and gas wastage from coming at the scheduled time.
