Undergraduate AI/ML researcher working across deep learning, high-performance computing, and generative AI — from CUDA-level kernel optimization to multi-agent LLM pipelines. My work is grounded in one question: how do we make models that are efficient, interpretable, and genuinely deployable?

Problem. Reconstruct clean images from noisy CIFAR-10 inputs while keeping the model small enough for constrained deployment. Approach. Designed a lightweight, fully custom denoising autoencoder and ran a systematic ablation sweep across architecture depth, noise schedules, and latent bottleneck sizing — 45+ configurations in total — writing the full study up as a 10-page LNCS-format research report. Result.

Problem: Automate reading-comprehension question generation from raw text. Approach: Hybrid pipeline pairing BERT for comprehension/context encoding with T5 for question generation. Outcome: A full AI-powered educational tool for auto-generating quizzes. |
Problem: Reconstruct clean signal from noisy images at low parameter cost. Approach: 182K-parameter DAE, 45+ ablation experiments. Outcome: 24.62 dB PSNR / 0.8225 SSIM, documented in a 10-page LNCS report. |
|
Problem: Automate end-to-end AI video creation from a prompt. Approach: Modular multi-agent pipeline — specialized LLM agents for scriptwriting, scene planning, and synthesis, with Gemini primary and Groq fallback for resilience. Outcome: A working automated video generation pipeline. |
Problem: Automate meeting attendance, note-taking, and Q&A without cloud APIs. Approach: Offline agent using Playwright to join meetings, Faster-Whisper for transcription, and Ollama for local LLM reasoning. Outcome: Fully offline attendance tracking + auto-generated structured PDF notes, zero API keys. |
|
Problem: Translate a genuinely low-resource language pair (English ↔ Urdu). Approach: Vanilla RNN encoder-decoder, with an empirical study of vanishing gradients, sequence bottlenecks, and training instability under low-resource conditions. Outcome: A working NMT baseline plus a documented failure-mode analysis. |
Problem: Improve live fan engagement using real-time data. Approach: Production-grade platform on Google Cloud AI with real-time predictive models and personalized content pipelines. Outcome: A deployed fan-engagement platform built for a live hackathon. |
