      Sept 2019 - Apr 2022

      Worked on an individual module within the IMAGE project server to recognize and capture visual artworks like landscape paintings of my own using computer vision and deep learning techniques and collaborated with the audio rendering engineer to convert these results into spatialised audio and haptic outputs to help blind people use this as a chrome plug-in.Conference - A demo version of this module was presented at the NFB 2021, United States from 6-10 July 2021Check example 8 on this link to experience it ! https://image.a11y.mcgill.ca/pages/demo.html Show less RF breast cancer detection research group - BCD analysis teamWorked with Clinical trial based and phantom based data to find defects in the system and possible loopholes. Discovered a possible loophole the device might have and suggested a possible solution using neural networks to minimise it, but had its own challenges. So, worked further on it outside this system with a hope to better optimise the existing devices and published a paper titled "Efficient Breast Calcifications Detection using Support Vector Machine Learning and Convolutional Neural Networks" Show less As a Mentor, I helped high school and CEGEP Students with projects related to artificial intelligence. A few of the award winning projects include 1. AI for the elderly ( Feb 2020) - a virtual assistant that is designed to be integrated to a smart home system . This project was based on simple neural networks 2. Alzheimer's detection device ( dec 2019 ) - Used pertained models to track gait movements and ask simple memory based questions and use the data to predict a possibility of developing Alzheimer's .
