Research experience
Few Shot Prototypical Anomaly Detection
Guide : Prof. Rajbabu Velmurugan, Prof. Biplab Banerjee, IIT Bombay
Code | Report

Introduced and implemented a novel approach for anomaly detection in videos by combining the concepts of few shot learning and memory module based prototypical networks.

Anomaly detection in videos
Guide : Prof. Rajbabu Velmurugan, Prof. Biplab Banerjee, IIT Bombay
Code | Report

Woked on a baseline architecture to identify anomalous behaviour in video frames using frame reconstruction .

Deep Anchored Convolutional Neural Networks
Guide :Prof. Biplab Banerjee, IIT Bombay
Report

Studied techniques like weight sharing to increase the efficiency of deep CNNs.

Projects
Adversarial Attacks and Robust Transformations
Course : EE782 | Advanced Topics in Machine Learning
Guide : Prof. Amit Sethi, IIT Bombay
Code | Report

Implemented and compared various robust transformations to counter the effects of various adversarial attacks. We use baseline models for image classification of MNIST and CIFAR10 datasets.

Sentiment Analysis using Lightweight Discourse Analysis

Course : CS626 | Speech and Natural Language Processing and the Web
Guide : Prof. Pushpak Bhattacharya, IIT Bombay
Code | Report

Implemented a method that will take into account several discourse relations while predicting the sentiment of a sentence. Using a lexicon based and an SVM based approach, we showcase the advantage of using these discourse relations over a simple weighted polarity model.

Eigen faces vs Fisher Faces
Course : CS663 | Digital Image Processing
Guide : Prof. Suyash Awate, IIT Bombay
Code | Report

Implemented and compared two popular face recognition algorithms, Fisher faces and Eigen faces on the Yale Face dataset which has sufficient variations in lighting and facial expressions

Image Compression
Course : GNR652 | Machine Learning in Remote Sensing
Guide : Prof. Biplab Banerjee, IIT Bombay
Code | Report

Implemented Image compression using k-means clustering algorithm. We compare the classification accuracy on the compressed and original image to know about the quality of compression.

Lazy Allocation
Course : CS347 | Operating Systems
Guide : Prof. Purushottam Kulkarni, IIT Bombay
Code | Report

Modified various function calls in xv6 and conducted experiments to check the validity of the allocation

Brain Computer Interface
Course : EE344 | Electronic Design Lab
Guide : Prof. Debraj Chakraborty, IIT Bombay
Report

Extracted brain waves data using EEG electrodes and filter circuits. Applied machine learning on the final output signals to implement an LED intensity adjuster.

IITB-Proc, A Multi-cycle RISC Processor Design
Course : EE309 | Microprocessors
Guide : Prof Virendra Singh, IIT Bombay
code | Report

Designed a 16-Bit, 6 stage Pipelined RISC Processor with 8 registers based on Turing-Complete Instruction Set Architecture in VHDL

The Snake Bot
Institute Technical Summer Project 2018
video | code

Constructed an autonomous snake bot using servos, Arduino and IR Sensors.
