Built a hybrid deep learning system combining RNN (LSTM) trajectory prediction and CNN-based vehicle matching to track cars in drone-captured roundabout footage. This approach achieves 98.7% accuracy in mapping vehicle entry-exit patterns, overcoming challenges like occlusion, non-linear motion, and detection gaps, enabling precise, automated traffic studies.

Designed a genetic algorithm to solve the combinatorial problem of finding maximal sets of k-distinct lattice paths—sets where no two paths share k or more edges. The algorithm outperforms both greedy and brute-force methods, delivering high accuracy with drastically reduced computation time, and demonstrates adaptability for other NP-complete optimization problems.

Contributed an end-to-end computer vision system that uses drone imagery and a YOLOv8 deep learning model to automatically detect and count parked vehicles. The system replaces traditional manual parking studies with a 100% accurate, 90% faster solution, integrating image registration, region filtering, and automated reporting.

AutoDine is an innovative AI-powered restaurant ordering system that combines voice recognition, natural language processing, and real-time inventory management to create a seamless dining experience. The system features "Eldia," an intelligent voice assistant that can process customer orders, check ingredient availability, and manage the entire ordering workflow through natural conversation.

A lighthearted yet powerful React Native mobile app that lets users capture notes via text, images, and audio, then transforms them into witty, AI-generated contextual summaries—in the persona of your chosen Shinigami. Supports immersive features like media-rich uploads and conversational chats with your eerie AI companion. Built with a Django backend and React Native frontend for seamless cross-platform performance

Built a Django-based platform for interactive physics learning, with distinct roles for students, instructors, and visitors. Led the majority of the design and implementation, including a high-precision calculator, semantic search, LaTeX and symbolic algebra support, note taking capabilities for students, dynamic variable generation, and automated grading. My collaborator contributed to select features and testing.
